Macroalgae Mobilisation
a Seaweed Appreciation Society international group show as part of Collective Polyphony Festival
The Seaweed Appreciation Society international/SASi has gathered a selection of artists, both local and from across the seas, who are critically engaging with the multiplicitous worlds of seaweeds in what is rapidly becoming a vast marine algae movement.
The works featured in Macroalgae Mobilisation are connected through bifurcating explorations of salty action including creative collectivism, ocean queering and marine futuring.
Encompassing animation, kinetic sculpture, video art, interactive lighting, speculative technologies and more, the exhibition creates a momentum that invites future participation and gentle agitation.
Artists Luna Mrozik Gawler, Lichen Kelp, Jess Cockerill, Scott Bluedorn, Riitta Ikonen and Karoline Hjorth, RMIT Animation Students, and Climavore poster artists.
