Into the Oceanic: documentary screening

Join the Art Collection for a special screening and Q&A of the artist documentary Into the Oceanic with Elizabeth Ogilvie and Robert Page.

Into the Oceanic is an ambitious, immersive project from artists Elizabeth Ogilvie and Robert Page, involving two films: an artist’s documentary, both lyrical and analytical in form; and creative film installations created for large-scale projection.

It is a project that is engendering hope, and championing progress in tackling the climate emergency by reinvigorating ocean life.

We're delighted to be working with the Faculty of Natural Sciences to bring the documentary to Stirling.

The documentary reveals investigation, experimentation, risk-taking and collaboration with world-class scientists; acting as an invaluable catalyst and educational tool for educators, curators, students and the public, revealing artists’ and scientists’ thinking and approach to art-making as a conceptual journey, reflecting collectively, thinking ahead, reporting, questioning and sharing.

During the ongoing collaboration the project will examine how artists and scientists can apply their skills to provide foresight and clarity in regard to the climate emergency, our relationship with the environment and our historical responsibility for what occurs in it.

Staff, students and the public are all very welcome to join us to watch this film and hear from the artists Elizabeth Ogilvie and Robert Page.
