Future Pacific

The exhibition catalogue for Future Pacific by Lauren Shapiro offers an in-depth look at the artist’s exploration of marine ecosystems, climate change, and the fragility of ocean life. Featuring vibrant images of Shapiro’s ceramic installations and sculptural works, the catalogue includes essays that contextualize her interdisciplinary approach, blending art, science, and community engagement. It serves as both a visual archive and a critical reflection on the urgent need for environmental stewardship.
