Melting Art, Creativity and Marine Sciences to foster Ocean Literacy in the Mediterranean area

About us

Melting Art, Creativity and Marine Sciences to foster Ocean Literacy in the Mediterranean area. ART4SEA aims to create a transnational and interdisciplinary cooperation program that involves artists, creative professionals, digital media experts, and marine scientists to co-produce a combination of physical and digital artworks focused on raising the public awareness about Ocean Degradation and Climate Change, thus motivating people to assume a more environmentally friendly behaviour in their everyday life. ART4SEA will engage 24 international artists, selected through an open call, that will be trained by the project staff about: a) the main environmental challenges that marine scientists are facing; b) Ocean Literacy methods; c) sustainable practices in arts; d) digital technologies such as Virtual, Augmented and Mixed Reality. A distributed residency program will take place in 3 small Med islands (Ustica in Italy, Alonissos in Greece and Gozo in Malta) where artists will be inspired by the stunning natural environment, the old seafaring traditions and the direct relations with the locals. They will be also motivated to integrate their artworks with the marine, natural and architectural landscapes of the islands, thus creating an open-air and underwater museum that could characterize the three Islands as lighthouses of the Ocean Conservation.
