The inspiration for this workshop is the project of the artistic duo Irwan Ahmett & Tita Salina that is being exhibited at the 17th Istanbul Biennial, which extends to the northern shores of Indonesia, in between the Indian and Pacific Oceans. We are conjuring up in our minds the creatures living in the oceans that occupy 70 percent of our planet, waters that are dark due to the vastness of their depths. We set out in this workshop to discover the many colorful creatures living in the oceans of our imagination, using flashlights we make out of carton. We use our creativity and our imagination as we think about our environment, the marine ecosystem, how to prevent pollution of the seas and the oceans, and about the non-human creatures that live in these waters.
