Oceans cover more than 70 percent of the Earth¿s surface, dividing and connecting humans, who carry saltwater in their blood, sweat, and tears. They also represent a powerful nonhuman force, rising, flooding, heating and raging in unprecedented ways as the climate crisis unfolds. Artists have envisioned the sea as a sublime wilderness, home to mythical creatures and bizarre species, a source of life and death, a site of new beginnings and tragic endings, both wondrous and disastrous. From migration to melting ice caps, the sea is omnipresent in international news and politics, leaking into popular culture and proliferating in recent art and exhibitions. This anthology gathers artists and writers to address the ocean not only as a theme but as a major agent of artistic and curatorial methods.

Endorsements
`From ecologies of human and nonhuman abundance to environmental threats, from disruptive colonial and migratory ocean crossings to the seäs sensuous connectivity, from brittlestars to microbial and technological aquatic agents, this volume casts a wide net of artistic, literary and multidisciplinary references introducing the oceans as a vital subject in contemporary art.¿
¿ Stefanie Hessler Contemporary art curator, art writer, Director of Swiss Institute, New York, and author of Prospecting Ocean (2019)
`Our relationship with the seas and oceans and the huge threats they are facing is not just one of scientific measurement and experiment; each of us has a personal connection. Beyond what we understand, we feel and imagine the sea. Pandora Syperek and Sarah Wade have brought together this wonderful anthology containing some of the most important and diverse artist and curator voices internationally, who explore the extraordinary oceanic world now and historically. This book powerfully demonstrates that artists, the greatest imaginers, have a vital role in protecting our oceans; giving us hope, new visions and inspiration.¿
