A project mapping and recording the rhythms of the Baltic Sea through observational drawing, audio visual field recordings and marine climate data. The intention is to entangle scientific observation and embodied experience of the Baltic Sea in order to bring us closer to it. The project seeks to ask; if the Baltic could sing its own rhythms, what would it sound, look and feel like?
The project’s aim is to use the Baltic as a laboratory, experimenting with ways to describe and measure its activity, visually, sonically and scientifically.
How can we make sense of the critical state of the Baltic Sea, in relation to our daily experience of it?
Connecting embodied experience and scientific knowledge is key to implicating us in the complex ecosystem of the Baltic - living around its border, we are entangled with its reality. Combining a scientific understanding with an emotional, direct contact with it can inform a holistic perspective and hopefully stewardship of it. Mapping something brings us closer, the intention is to seek to hear the Baltic, feel its movements in the body and hold it in the hand, even just for a moment, before it runs through our fingers.
