The concept  of  the art project “SAVE THE OCEANS” is an exhibition on this topic of about 50  art works  and  also an  open-air  art-installation representing  enlarged  models of dolphins flying  over the streets, and between buildings against the backdrop of  the blue skies, like a messengers of the forgotten world – trying to  provoke  thoughts  and  feelings  for  the  real  meaning of life .At  the gallery and outside on the street under the installation will  be  placed  boards addressing  different environmental  problems  and  giving useful  green ideas for implementation in our everyday life.
The image  of  flying fishes  above our heads is kind of  surrealistic, but not much  in  contrast with the real-surrealism of our unsustainable way of  living .
Our mission is to open the public eyes to the problems humans cаuse to the environment  and  it’s own future .
Using the universal language of art we try to catch the audience attention on the intuitive emotional level  of  perception, and then to invite them to participate and start  making  a difference from today .We hope the direct emotional and visual message of  our art  to provoke this pure instinctive response . We want to bring up in mind the realization that the environment  is  damaged and destroyed  not  from some imaginary  horror asteroid ,but from Ourselves  and it’s  time to look  into our children’s eyes and confess  this sin.
It is time to finally take responsibility for what we have done and continue to do .
The  goal  of the project  is to inform, inspire, and compel change .To help every  individual  to understand  the complex  interconnections of things ,like
the effects we have thousands of kilometers away, as a result of  the things we buy  here.
To view our everyday decisions as consumers from a more complex point of view, and ask ourselves: what, why  and  how  much  of something we buy. To provoke a new way of  thinking  with more sensible completeness over any  issue  and  object  creating our footprint – any activity, any technology, any product, any decision and  goal , just anything in our life.
We need to bear in mind that every product  requires energy to produce,mining and resources to create and transport to get it to us.
We want to show  the inevitable need of reform to our throw-away-economy with something that has sustainability  in mind ?
Today’s  ICON-GOAL of  existence -“THE ECONOMIC GROWTH” measured by the growth of pure numbers , is old fashion, and much  unethical on the background of  the environmental and social problems it causes for the future.
We want to inspire a desire  for change towards more sustainable  and sophisticated society  pursuit of  which  will open to us endless new  opportunities  for developing fulfilled with better values and giving a real  sense  to our existence.
