Imersão Mediterrânea. A Exposição ; Mediterranean Immersion .The Exhibition

Mediterranean Immersion is catalog in Portuguese, Spanish and English of an art exhibicion about flowing into the sea, more specifically, the Mediterranean Sea. For over 10 years, our artistic practice has involved seas, oceans and rivers. Water is part of life. Free diving, scuba diving, swimming, rowing and sailing are ways to feel part of the water. We have already worked with the Atlantic Ocean – off the Brazilian coast, the Southern Ocean – close to the Brazilian Antarctic Base, the North Sea and the Baltic Sea – off the coast of Norway, Sweden, Lithuania and Latvia. This past year, our artistic practice has been focused on feeling the Mediterranean Sea, a work resulting from my time as a visiting researcher at the Universitat Politècnica de València, in Spain. This sea, the Mediterranean, is a new sea for us and has brought us many questions, scary thoughts, crystal clear waters, salty waters, immigration issues, deaths, concerns about global warming and invasive species. With the body as a sensor, we perceive this sea with our breath, mouth, skin, ears, eyes and feelings. Additionally, we use geographic coordinates and scientific data such as salinity, temperature, conductivity and pH of the water to better understand the environmental aesthetics of the location. GPX tracks, citizen science and low-tech portable meters generated artisanal data and, little by little, we created different narratives of this subjective aesthetic perception of the Mediterranean Sea. Here in this catalog book, we present a compilation of hybrid art, video art, installation, photographic mosaic, interactive map, audiovisual cartography, sound sculpture, recycled material sculpture, data visualization, animations, interviews, and audiovisual performance. Dive with us in this winding sea. ; CAPES Print ; Imersão Mediterrânea é sobre fluir para o mar, mais especificamente, o Mar Mediterrâneo.
