XAVI BOVÉ STUDIO presents POSIDÒNIA

POSIDÒNIA is a multidisciplinary project that highlights the crucial role of Posidonia oceanica, an underwater seagrass species endemic to the Mediterranean Sea that is essential for the marine environment. It provides multiple ecological benefits, being the habitat of many marine species, playing a major role in the mitigation of climate change and protecting the coastline from the effect of storms.

This project is conceived as a journey to make the invisible visible, revealing what lies beneath the surface of the sea—a vital underwater forest currently at risk due to different pressures, such as rising water temperatures and unsustainable human practices.

The project comprises three key elements: an immersive projection, an underwater light installation, and a virtual reality (VR) experience, all connected by a common narrative thread. By merging light, the virtual realm, and the physical world, POSIDÒNIA proposes a new way of experiencing the underwater environment and reconsidering our connection with it.

This project aligns with Xavi Bové Studio’s ongoing exploration of our perception of the environment and climate change.

POSIDÒNIA is an artistic experience that invites a profound reflection on the relationship between humans and nature, calling for the preservation of an underwater treasure essential to our future.

The project has the collaboration of Triton Diving Llafranc and the scientific guidance of SUBMON. 10% of profits will be donated to projects dedicated to the protection of Posidonia.
