MOXI'S ALGAE SOCIETY SHOW IS NOW CLOSED

Our three months show is now closed, it's been an amazing experience designing this exhibition with the whole collective Algae Society members. More than 20 students from the MFA course I teach in "Art, Science and Nature" at Universidad Complutense de Madrid have been involved, creating stunning artworks related to algae and Ocean Acidification, Thank you all for your participation!

Located in the Simms/Mann Family Foundation Bridge on the second floor of the museum, The Algae Society: Bio Art Design Lab celebrates algae as an unsung hero of the planet and invites guests to learn about how algae contributes to the health and stability of our planet and the effects global warming is having on these valuable creatures by interacting with its several components. See the projects link page to learn about each of the works included in the exhibit.

Included in the exhibit is the “Cabinet of Curiosity” and the Algae Society library nook which includes peephole visual representation of the effects that ocean acidification is having on the different algae species, the Back to the Anemone video game, algae growing in the desert, and sonic art with visualizations pulsating and breathing with algae.
