Dorsch Data
Dorsch Data is an installation that visualises the decline and near extinction of the cod population in the western Baltic Sea, focusing on the effects of overfishing.
Life in northern Germany, is closely linked to the Baltic Sea. Fishing and seafood are deeply linked to the local culture, but the ocean is increasingly affected by climate change and human activity. Most of the fish sold on the German coast no longer comes from nearby waters. Fish that are popular for human consumption, such as cod, have been heavily overfished for decades. This project aims to raise awareness of the urgent need to rethink our relationship with the ocean.
The project was exhibited at Einblick Ausblick 2024 in Kiel, Germany.
