Exhibition Tour: From Existence to Extinction
Alp Can leads visitors through a visual exploration of marine ecosystems under threat, where environmental collapse is unfolding quietly but relentlessly. The exhibition brings together underwater and coastal imagery to show how biodiversity loss, pollution, and climate pressure are reshaping life beneath the surface.
As the tour moves through the sequence, attention turns to the relationship between observation and responsibility. The walk highlights how photography can function as both documentation and warning, and how sustained engagement with fragile environments allows complex ecological stories to be communicated clearly to a public audience.
