Branding for an exhibition on ocean pollution

‘See: An Immersive Exhibition’ explores oceanic plastic pollution through the interaction of film, sound and physical space.


The challenge was to create a visual identity for a subject that people are already accustomed to. It needed to feel like an invitation into the ocean, before gradually revealing the reality beneath the surface.

A key part of the visual approach was making the subject feel personal. Instead of presenting plastic pollution through statistics alone, the exhibition gave individual pieces of plastic their own stories: some humorous, some disturbing.

The exhibition wasn't intended to end with a feeling of guilt. I extended the identity into informational material that visitors could take away, covering plastics, recycling, and common misconceptions.
