The other face of the sky



I. Section - The other side of the sky

This section will display significant examples of flora and fauna living in the sea: living and mummified specimens, plastic, plaster and papier-mâché models of sea inhabitants belonging to various plant and animal taxonomy groups (i.e. fish, cephalopods, sea turtles, seals, algae and other creatures living in the marine biosphere, including sea bird species).

Such a variety of materials need to be accompanied by maps and charts showing the bottom of the sea, its currents and coastlines. For this reason, the use of typological tables becomes essential so that visitors can refer to them to identify the specific class of each specimen displayed. Photographic exhibition panels, videos and recordings of sea storms should be used for the sake of a very well documented exhibition. Giving visitors the chance to listen to the sounds uttered by some species (such as dolphins, killer whales and so on) could help debunk the myth that fish are silent.
