Overview

This article explores artistic and legal practices related to hydrographic infrastructures, suggesting new frameworks for representation.

Key Points

  • The aim is to examine how legal and artistic practices interact with hydrographic infrastructures and represent hydro-social relationships.
  • Analysis of the Charter of the Rights of Hydro Bodies as a performative device.
  • Exploration of situated practices in Genoa relating to water and infrastructure.
  • Study of 'orthopedics of water' and lingua franca as tools for questioning representation.
  • Findings indicate that legal and artistic representations can both support and distort the relations they aim to portray.
  • The Charter serves as a continuously evolving framework, prompting critical discussion on hydro-social dynamics.
  • Artistic practices reveal deeper insights into hydro-social governance and representation.
