How can seaweeds tell us everything we need to know about our health and well-being?

Seaweeds play a significant role in our lives. They are an invaluable platform for the growth and transformation of ocean economies, socio-cultural habits, food security, and renewable energy resources. In my project “Anthropocene Kelp Forest,” I mediate data of the Southern California Kelp Forests through my weavings made with marine debris collected on the Channel Islands.

How do artists act as cultural mediators to translate scientific data? How can scientific innovation and technology drive, transform, and reinvent human culture? How can we embrace nature, culture, and science as an inseparable trio?

This presentation traces the uses of seaweeds in Art and Art history to inquire upon the direction that seaweeds, bio-design, energy tech, and Science + Art collaborations are innovating a responsible and adaptable future.
