A sad future prediction about the eventual destiny of water sources. By means of the fossil artifacts, which are inherently connected with the water, I tried to illustrate the consequences of the harmful environmental oversights made by the people. Referring to the background of the museum, where in the exposure cases the fossils of water tap, bottled water or shower head with particular labels are displayed. On these labels are some pieces of information, for instance : fossil N°, scale, reconstruction, location, geologic epoch. They are meant to be a fiction but with the authentic features carrying a clear aim – to appeal to the self-confidence of all people being careless to this problem. The concept is based on the thoughts of a French philosopher Jean Baudrillard, who wrote in his book The Perfect Crime: „Perhaps there will one day be fossilized vestiges of the real, as there are of past geological ages.“
