16 works on the oceans

The exhibition is based on the Beijer Institute's work on the Key Stone Dialogues project – a dialogue between researchers and the world's leading fisheries companies with the aim of improving the marine environment. The project has inspired 16 works, including a news broadcast from an alternative reality, a kitchen machine that "deplastics" the food we eat and a book depicting plastic toys traveling across the ocean. 

This is the second time that Svenskt Tenn has allowed students in Visual Communication to interpret the Institute's research.  

"The course is a collaborative course with many actors involved. Collaboration, research and their own expression are in focus when students are challenged in turning complex information into independent artistic projects," says Samira Bouabana, Programme Manager at Visual Communication.

Here you can see pictures and read about each project.
