Intro

The Aflaj of the Sultanate of Oman

WATER PATHS - THE AFLAJ OF THE SULTANATE OF OMAN @ MUSÉE VALAISAN DES BISSESMusée valaisan des Bisses, AyentOpening: Sunday, May 31, 2026, 11 a.m.At first glance, the Valais Alps seem to have nothing in common with the arid landscapes of Oman. The exhibition brings together the bisses and the aflaj of Oman, some of the oldest irrigation systems still in use and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It reveals how, in these demanding territories, societies have managed to harness, guide and share water with remarkable ingenuity.beyond technology, these networks tell the story of cultures where water structures collective life, uses and landscapes. Through objects, archives, films and interactive devices, the public discovers a common know-how, born of necessity and carried by the collective.between immersion, participatory workshops and a contemporary perspective, the exhibition invites us to rethink our relationship with water - as a resource to be preserved, but also as a bond to be cultivated.
