“A Sea Change: Political, Natural, and Cultural Ecologies of the Mediterranean” serves as both a theoretical reader and a comprehensive catalogue for the “A Sea Change” project (2022-2024). This publication delves into the complex interconnections of political, natural, and cultural ecologies in the Mediterranean region.

An invitation to expand and re-sacralise our relationship with nature and the environment our relationship with nature and the environment
The work of the environmental sculptor Joaquín Jara restores our gaze towards our environment with attentive, critical and ephemeral interventions that generate emotional connections with the different communities that inhabit it.
What can we learn from the association of art and science with regard to a sustainable transformation of the economy on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea? What diagnoses and strategies can we draw up from this hybrid space that will allow us to establish a more balanced and less anthropocentric relationship with the sea that fills our coasts?
