“The Holiwater Project is inspired by direct experience of the sacred Ganges river of India – its rhythms, its beauty, its people, its meaning for humanity and, sadly, its rapid deterioration in the face of neglect and misunderstanding. … Since the turn of the millennium, the project has gathered together international artists – filming their music and performance – to give voice to the Ganges and her plight. …
The mission is global. Our ambition is to inspire individuals and groups from all corners to connect and act – now – to stop the world’s water crisis turning to catastrophe.” – filmmaker Andrei Jewell.

For the Govett-Brewster, Andrei Jewell presents a two week installation embracing film, classical Baul singing, electronic music and photography, culminating in breathtaking live performances on Friday 2 and Saturday 3 October.
