S.E.A. Aquarium & NLB
Glowing Ocean 2019

The Brief
Create a small, interactive exhibition for S.E.A. Aquarium, to be showcased in regional libraries. The exhibition is split into two themes: Up Close with Sharks and Glowing Ocean.

This exhibition aims to raise awareness about marine biodiversity and the impact of climate change on ocean life. It highlights how individuals can contribute to conservation efforts and help protect marine ecosystems.

The Idea
Glowing Ocean brings marine conservation to life through a visually striking underwater world that contrasts vibrant coral reefs with bleached, dying corals, making the effects of climate change immediately clear.

The key visual centers on corals as both a symbol of life and a warning sign, using a modern gradient illustration style with deep blues and neon accents to capture attention, especially among younger audiences. This immersive visual approach turns learning into exploration, inspiring visitors to care for and protect our oceans.
