Ocean Literacy: Sound and Video Art Exhibition

We are pleased to announce our collaboration with Mango and Art Farm LK for the International Forum Ocean Data Tapestry (ODTIF). This open call marks the first step in what we hope will be a long-term collaboration between MANGO Artist Residency, Moku Art Studio, and Art Farm LK.

Artists are central to ODTIF's mission of translating complex scientific data into deeply resonant and accessible experiences. Leveraging insights from pollution data and scientific impact assessments, artists specialize in data visualization and artistic creation. Through various mediums, from visual arts to performing arts, they transform abstract pollution information into powerful narratives that visually and emotionally engage society, driving ocean literacy and inspiring behavioral change.

Exhibition Dates: July 8–16, 2026 Location: Art Korea Lab Studio D, Seoul, South Korea Theme: Works inspired by the ocean and marine themes. Actions in support of the ocean we love. Submission Deadline: June 10, 2026 Participation Fee: $40 USD
