Ocean Art of Earth and Spirit
Following the unprecedented global success of the Sea Change Project’s My Octopus Teacher, social impact agency The Good Machine (TGM) has teamed up with filmmakers Craig Foster and Pippa Ehrlich, fine artist Marti Marais, and the largely undiscovered sculpting sensation Robert Rorich, to wow Capetonians with an art exhibition illuminating the wonders of the Great African Sea Forest.
The idea for the exhibition was born out of a mutual love for sea creatures, and a passion to protect them, by TGM’s founder Gita Carroll and the four artists involved. Filmmakers Foster and Ehrlich – who’ve remained under the radar since winning an Academy Award last year for My Octopus Teacher – will contributed eight original, limited edition photographic prints, which were sold alongside Rorich’s bronze sculptures and Marais’ mixed media canvases.
Deli2Sea
At its core, Deli2Sea began with just 20 individuals raising funds for a female running academy (Endurocad) during the end of lockdown of 2020. But its impact quickly expanded when we witnessed Professor Peter Ryan's collection of 450 coffee cup lids on Dalebrook Beach in 2019.
This prompted conversations with businesses, like Chardonnay Deli, and sea-loving customers about making better decisions for our environment. From its humble beginnings as a fundraiser for female athletes, Deli2Sea has grown into a movement with a bigger heart – one that beats for our planet.
Walk, run, or wiggle, the 12km journey from Chardonnay Deli, Constantia Uitsig to Dalebrook Beach is a testament to our commitment.
