PangeaSeed
PangeaSeed was founded in 2010 as an innovator in the ocean conservation movement. They leverage the influence of contemporary art and the power of creativity to raise awareness about urgent environmental threats. They produce impactful art that communicates ocean narratives in communities. This helps to increase ocean literacy and empathy. Their work has also cultivated a global netword of advocates dedicated to ocean conservation.
The issues affecting oceans are global in scale and PangeaSeed believes that radical collaboration is key to meeting these challenges head on. By uniting and amplifying creative voices from cross the planet, they have a unique opportunity to share culture, both past and present, learn from one another, and utilize those voices to bring about positive change. Together, we are an ocean.
They are developing the world’s first network of artists and marine scientists mutually passionate about protecting our oceans. For every single one of their art-based projects, they leverage this network to create a collaboration point, ensuring that their work is grounded in sound, data-driven, ocean science.
PangeaSeed delivers purpose-driven work that addresses their four Priority Ocean Challenges: Climate + Ocean, Overfishing, Pollution + Plastics, and Coastal Development. Their projects scale from fine art prints, large-scale public murals, experiential installations, sculptures, youth workshops, and beyond. They are always exploring new media to give the oceans a creative voice.
The mission of PangeaSeed is to bridge art and science to increase ocean literacy and empathy in communities. Leveraging art’s emotional impact and science’s evidence-based approach, they creatively communicate pressing ocean narratives. At this critical time, their work educates and empowers people around the world to become ocean advocates.
