The blue container has become a significant repeating pattern in the landscape of a small village named Bamanbore. The blue plastic water container is both a lifeline and a reminder of a dwindling future. Bamanbore faces a severe water crisis. Located in the semi-arid parts of Gujarat, the only source of water are the two water tankers that supply water to the village every day and their arrival spark brawls within the villagers. This photo series documents both the water scarcity in Bamanbore and its effect on the people and their land.

In the face of this everyday struggle for water, the lives of the villagers have changed significantly. The women of the family are assigned the task of fetching water and the younger girls often drop out of school to help their mothers gather enough water for the family. The objective of this project is to focus on an altered landscape due to the shortage of water and look at a future that seems to be getting drier by the day.
