This course builds on the practical and theoretical foundation laid out in the course Art and Ocean 1 with an emphasis on turning hypotheses, reflections and ideas from semester 1 into practice. It will further investigate the role of art and the work of artists when it comes to addressing global challenges regarding the future of the oceans. Uncertainty, complexity, and fluidity within ocean research are challenging the borders of conventional forms of knowledge production. It opens up opportunities for interventions carried out within new alliances of agencies and collaborations. The production of knowledge across different fields of artistic practices and scientific research creates new understandings of the world we live in.
