Meet the TIDAL ArtS Lighthouse Projects

Crossing coasts, connecting communities, new artistic visions from Europe’s coastlines, seas and inland waters

Atlantic-Arctic

Baltic-North Sea

Danube River-Black Sea

Mediterranean Sea

The Lighthouse Projects are a core strand of the TIDAL ArtS project. It supports artists and collectives across Europe’s coastal regions to explore the relationship between people, place, and our waters.

Through an open call, we invited proposals that respond to marine science, climate change, biodiversity, and human interaction with coastal and ocean environments.

From over 600 submissions, a diverse group of Lighthouse Artists were selected to develop new, site-specific projects spanning the Atlantic-Arctic, Baltic-North Sea, Mediterranean, and Danube-Black Sea regions.

"TIDAL ArtS gives us a platform to tell a story close to our community, but one that we want the world to know."
