Discover the fascinating world of seaweed forests on a visual adventure with artist and marine scientist, Oriana Poindexter.
Seaweed forests are some of the most incredible habitats on Earth, and yet these powerful sanctuaries are often overlooked and understudied. That’s where Poindexter comes in. Blending experimental photography techniques with her background in marine sciences, Oriana Poindexter documents how kelp forest ecosystems shift. Embark on a visual adventure with Poindexter during her talk—through a collection of specimens, photographs, and striking art displays, she’ll compel you to reconsider how you think about kelp.
