Marine debris is a serious pollution problem known to affect the world’s coastal and marine environment. Plastic and microplastic waste accumulated in our waterways are harmful to marine life and may cause injury or death through entanglement or ingestion. The large amounts of marine debris that litter our oceans and coastlines are a threat to the ongoing presence of marine life. 

This project researches data on the sources and quantities of marine debris and explores ways to raise public awareness of the problem through the design of an immersive visual and sonic installation. The immersive installation is situated in the  Melbourne aquarium’s interaction room.  It employs three-dimensional sculptures and a soundscape to make people aware of marine pollution and the threat to our oceans that holds.

The installation will immerse people in the marine environment of St Kilda and represent the threat of our ocean. With the whole experience, the audiences will understand the relationship between the species and plastic pollution, then start to imagine what our ocean will be like in the future if we don’t reduce plastic pollution.
