ContactWhat is "Art for MOTHER OCEAN"?
"Art for MOTHER OCEAN" is an initiative aimed at fostering our deeper connection with the ocean, integrating elements of science, art, and spirituality.
Fishers, scientists, artists, and others who care deeply about the ocean come together to express a collective artwork representing the ocean, and through immersive art experiences, spark dialogue about the unknown of the ocean and explored what the ocean means to us.
The following video is the archive of the first Art for MOTHER OCEAN project carried out in Hayama Town, Kanagawa Prefecture.
