Gyre: The Plastic Ocean

Investigating issues of the contemporary culture of consumption and its consequences on nature, Gyre: The Plastic Ocean, tackles the big picture by bringing together visual arts and science. The exhibition tells a global marine debris story through the work of 25 artists and a National Geographic film. The artworks in the museum’s three galleries encapsulate the entire space, positioning visitors within the center of the trash that, we, as the human race, are responsible for creating.
