About this Event
The ReefLine’s Founder and Artistic Director, Ximena Caminos, invites you to explore “marine acupuncture,” an innovative practice combining high art and deep science to target critical pressure points within our oceans.
The ReefLine will be a 7-mile underwater public sculpture park, snorkel trail, and hybrid reef off Miami Beach’s shoreline, fostering environmental awareness through art and action-driven conservation. Conceived by cultural place-maker Ximena Caminos and developed by the BlueLab Preservation Society, the ReefLine nonprofit team collaborates with architecture firm OMA as well as marine biologists, researchers, architects, and coastal engineers to design the master plan. Caminos’ lecture, followed by a conversation with Pedro Alonzo and Charles Waldheim, highlights how this pioneering approach uses human ingenuity to ignite ecological processes that help the reef regenerate. The ReefLine’s cross-disciplinary methodology offers a compelling example of how collaboration can help solve some of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time.
This event is supported by the Melissa Kaish and Jonathan Dorfman Makers Fund.
