Lisbon Oceanarium

Forest Underwater

This is a temporary exhibition by Takashi Amano that features tropical plant species enclosed in an aquarium. The lighting and layout of the tropical forest makes it a gorgeous sight to witness. This confluence of a natural environment and art is aimed at educating viewers about the fragile tropical ecosystems that are currently threatened by human interference.

One, The Ocean as you never felt it - Lisbon Oceanrium

One, The Ocean as you never felt it

This artistic piece by Maya de Almeida Arujo  strives to spark a deep connection between humans and the ocean. Through wonderfully knit series of underwater photographs and footage, the exhibition has the potential to inspire a sense of awe. It took 8 months of filming with eleven different film and drone crews to create this fabulous exhibit. To simulate the dynamism of ocean ecosystems, post-production has been done with cutting-edge artificial intelligence.
