The exhibition explores the transformations the Arctic has undergone in recent centuries and poses questions about future climatic changes and their impacts on our habitat and the whales that inhabit the Arctic.
Mythologial event
Nature has left geological speed and is changing on a human scale. All elements of water on the planet are simultaneously going out of balance. Glaciers are melting, the permafrost is thawing, patterns of rain and snow are becoming unpredictable, the sea level is rising and the oceans are warming while the pH level of the oceans is reaching a level not seen for 50 million years. This happens faster than most species can adapt to. The change is not only historical, it is an event of geographical proportions and will be remembered as a mythological event.
