Sea the Future by Cristina Tarquini
Sea the Future is a digital exhibition presenting two works by artist Cristina Tarquini: Medusae and Diving into an Acidifying Ocean.
Medusae
What can jellyfish teach us about climate change in the Mediterranean? The climate crisis affects jellyfish differently from other fish species. Acidifying waters, rising temperatures, lack of oxygen and a decrease in natural predators are allowing them to thrive in our seas. Jellyfish blooms are a symptom of the stress we are inflicting on the Mediterranean seas.
This project uses a visual style that highlights the beauty and fragility of marine life. An aesthetic that can stimulate the imagination of viewers and draw them into this incredible marine story.
