Ocean Art + Science

"Scientists and artists are both motivated by creativity and curiosity, and science and art can be mutually reinforcing, supporting discovery and innovation” - Chappell and Muglia 2023

Artists, philosophers, and scientists have shared a fascination with the oceans for thousands of years. Interest in oceanic art-science collaborations is more recent, and it’s growing rapidly as a way to build stronger relationships between science, society, and the sea.

The Johnson Center for Marine Conservation is developing innovative initiatives at the art-science nexus that aim to push the boundaries of how we understand, experience, and communicate about marine conservation.
