When we want to communicate, we use art.
Our Artivist Series brings you conversations with creators from around the world whose work is shaped by the ocean—and who, in turn, use their creativity to protect it. Each episode explores an artist’s connection to water, the stories behind their practice, and the ways art can spark action for a healthier, more resilient planet.
We’re closing in on our 100th episode and have featured artivists working across every medium imaginable.
Stay tuned as we approach this milestone 100th episode—there’s so much more to come.
Inspirational Wo(men) Who’ve Shared Their Passion for the Ocean with Us
Artivist Series - Arielle Moody
Arielle Moody worked in the beauty industry for more than 15 years, before she started her own company. Mama Sol was a collaboration between three women who wanted to protect themselves, their children, and the planet from the harmful petrochemicals found in many commercially available sunscreens. Mama Sol’s tagline is: “For all mamas, Mother Earth included.” In addition to protecting the skin from the harmful rays of the sun, the sunscreens are also less harmful to coral reefs.
Artivist Series - Indira Brooks
Indira Brook, the latest guest on the Wo(men) Mind the Water Artivist Series podcast, is a manager at Roatán Marine Park. The marine park is a non-profit dedicated to the protection of the Caribbean island located about 40 miles off the northern coast of Honduras. Indira’s work for the Roatán Marine Park involves working with people to protect coral reefs, mangroves and other marine species. Roatán’s coral reefs are second only in size to Australia's Great Barrier Reef. Indira is currently working with others to institute an island-wide ban of sunscreens containing petrochemicals. Coral bleaching and deformity in the development of fish are attributable to the petrochemicals in sunscreen.
