Waterlicht by Daan Roosegaarde
The artists dream landscape was created to evoke the power and poetry of living with water. In Dubai`s history, water always has been an important element that enabled the cities connectivity to the rest of the world, water is in its DNA. The ambition that Dubai`s has, to be one of the most sustainable cities in the world, moving from an old fossil area, towards a more sustainable area with green energy, learning from nature and to redefine our relation with water, is one of the most important trades marks of the city of tomorrow.
