Marine Art II at Fort Napoleon

Part of the Marine Art exhibition was displayed at Fort Napoleon, Ostend. The exhibition took place from May 18 to June 9. 

Celebrating World Oceans Day, Marine@UGent members made presentations on the science behind the art, that served as an inspiration for it. Speakers were: prof. Ann Vanreusel on deep-sea research, prof. Colin Janssen about invisible threats to ocean life (microplastics), prof. Peter Troch about waves, and dr. Nancy Fockedey about overfishing and jellyfish.
