An artist, wanting to make a statement about the importance of clean water, used cups of colored rainwater to create a piece of art. You have to watch the video to the end to see the finished product and, wow, is it worth it!

The sculpture is composed of 66,000 compostable and biodegradable cups with 15,000 liters of colored rainwater and 1 kg of vegetable dye. It took more than 100 volunteers 62 hours to complete.

Belo, the artist, wanted to raise awareness about the global clean water crisis. And the sculpture is meant to call attention to the importance of clean drinking water throughout a person's life.

The end result is beautiful. Breathtaking. And astounding that it's made entirely of cups of water!
