Exhibition at DHub: L’Oceà parla. Noves ecologies i noves economies del mar

Dates: 10/10/2024 – 23/02/2025

Disseny Hub Barcelona invites you to the opening of the temporary exhibition  L’oceà parla. Noves ecologies i noves economies del mar on October 9, 2024, at 6:30 pm.

Barcelona has always been by the sea, perhaps this is why it has taken it for granted. Now, the climate crisis forces us to give the sea and its ecosystems the attention they deserve.

The exhibition invites reflection on the relationship between the city and the marine element through an interdisciplinary perspective, encompassing architecture, fashion, technology, speculative design, and urbanism. These disciplines are capable of proposing new imaginaries to address the major challenges that coastal societies will face in response to global warming and rising sea levels.

The Biblioteca El Clot-Josep Benet, in collaboration with DHub, organizes a reading club as part of the  L’oceà parla. Noves ecologies i noves economies del mar  exhibition to delve deeper into these topics. Following the path of Moby Dick, the club will read writings on the various uses and abuses of the sea, the largest known living space, a source of resources, and a dumping ground for our land-based waste.
