Reji Varghese and Parvathi Nayar Honored with TRUMPF India and Wolters Kluwer Environment Awards
On April 13th 2024, their collaborative piece titled "Ocean's Breath" was inaugurated as part of the permanent "The Living Ocean" exhibition at Dakshinachitra Museum, Chennai. The installation, which beautifully captures the essence of the ocean and the microscopic diatoms that inhabit it, underscores the critical role these organisms play in producing around 40 percent of the oxygen in our atmosphere. This piece aims to emphasize the urgent need to protect our oceans amidst the growing threat of climate change.
Parvathi Nayar, a multidisciplinary visual artist, was recognized not only for her curation of "The Living Ocean" exhibition but also for her conceptualization and direction of the film "Seaspeaker." Her consistent creative endeavors have significantly contributed to environmental advocacy, making her a worthy recipient of this honor.
