A drinking water fountain composed of several parts. The water, brought from a Lithuanian spring (Well No. 31099), comes accompanied by four mythical water fauns, sealed in 19-liter containers.
In ancient cities, drinking water fountains were often designed as central features of urban spaces, serving as both a source of pride and a symbol of the city’s power. However, the industrialization of the 19th century brought the development of sewer systems, causing drinking water fountains to lose their primary function. They became aesthetic, decorative elements that adorned urban areas. Thus, water gradually shifted its status—from a sacred, worshiped, ritualistic source of life to an everyday domestic office space.
