Ecos del Océano Exhibition: Art, Science, and Ocean Preservation at Espacio Fundación Telefónica

This exhibition, 'Ecos del Océano' (Echoes of the Ocean), merges science, technology, art, and creativity to encourage reflection on environmental responsibility and the preservation of the planet's delicate balance. It highlights the vital role of oceans as Earth's life support system.

The exhibition 'Ecos del Océano' (Echoes of the Ocean) is a proposal where science, technology, art, and creativity converge to incite reflection on human responsibility towards the environment, urging the protection and preservation of the balance between humans, nature, and other species. Oceans are presented as the planet's life support, regulating the climate, producing oxygen, and harboring immense biodiversity. The exhibition features an immersive and sensory installation, 'Ecos del océano', created by the digital artist collective Marshmallow Laser Feast in collaboration with Fundación Telefónica and the DHub, and in dialogue with the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya's Bioacoustics Applications Laboratory. The centerpiece is 'Seeing Echoes in the Mind of the Whale,' a large audiovisual installation using twelve screens, AI-generated visuals, and real sound recordings of marine species, addressing the impact of acoustic pollution. Curated by José Luis de Vicente, the exhibition emphasizes that the health of seas and oceans is fundamental for human survival and global ecosystem balance, aligning with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals.
