Janet
Solomon – a Durban artist and filmmaker – will screen her movie, Becoming Visible, about the impact of
noise exposure from marine surveys on sea species, at the KZNSA Gallery on March
15.
“Becoming Visible investigates the risks
posed by unilateral and indiscriminate traumatising noise exposure from marine
seismic surveys to many marine species. The 33-minute film also looks at the
vulnerability of fishery-based livelihoods to these impacts,” explains Solomon.
The KZN
public premiere of Becoming Visible
will take place at the KZNSA Gallery at 19h00 on March 15. The movie is an
arthouse environmental documentary using a three-screen display. After the
screening, there will be a facilitated public Q&A featuring filmmaker,
Janet Solomon in conversation with Senior Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife marine
ecologist, Dr Jennifer Olbers.
The
Gallery Cafe will stay open to serve early dinners and the bar will stay open
until after the Q&A. Entrance is free and all are welcome.
The
KZNSA Gallery is situated at 166 Bulwer Road, Glenwood, in Durban. More
