4. Visit a marine-themed exhibition
Artists hailing from Darnley Island in Australia’s Torres Strait have transformed abandoned fishing nets, or ghost nets, into a spectacular art installation featuring precious marine life and provoking reflection on how we humans are impacting the world’s oceans. Over 80 colourful sculptures of fish, turtles, squids, jellyfish and corals woven from ghost nets will be showcased in Ghost Nets of the Ocean or Au Karem ira Lamar Lu – a unique marine-themed exhibition celebrating the island, the reef, the ocean and the beauty of life. Other activities include craft workshops, storytelling sessions and talks, musical performances and gallery trails.
