Pale Blue Dot
National Museum of Scotland is proud to be hosting Edinburgh Science Festival’s brand-new exhibition, Pale Blue Dot, created to celebrate the Year of Coasts and Waters 2020–21.
About Pale Blue Dot
Delve deep into our seas and oceans in this multi-sensory exploration of everything marine. Taking you through every layer of the ocean, Pale Blue Dot explores the vastness, majesty and mystery of our seas. From curious species to amazing ecosystems, oceans bounties and intriguing research, find out what makes the marine landscape so special and how we can protect one of the most precious habitats on Earth.
Showcasing new and existing art from Scottish and international artists, Marco Barotti and Matthew Rimmer, Pale Blue Dot encourages you to explore your own relationship with the oceans and discover more about the waters that surround us.
