Halocline - the layer of mixed water between saline bottom waters and brackish surface waters - is increasing. So is the problem of climate change, with all the factors causing it. Now it’s still possible to reverse it, keep the balance and keep the Baltic ecosystem healthy. Our wish in the project is to undertake deeper research, in collaboration with Hope Spot Gotland and Campus Gotland / Blue Centre Gotland, to learn more about the environment of the Baltic and what we can do to prevent further destructive changes in it. The message will be transformed into a short art film, expressed through the language of dance and body painting, filmed both in the studio and outdoors, in the landscapes of the Gotland island.
