Shorelines
The Shorelines Project is a major art and activism project for Hull. Our vibrant murals and cutting-edge hybrids of art and technology bring the risks of a flooded future to life.
Involving local artists, community groups and the council, the installations invite the people of Hull to become fully aware of the reality of climate change. By simply visualising an ‘unseen’ problem, people will gain a better grasp of what the future might hold.
Shorelines is not just art for art’s sake. Its purpose is to raise awareness and to send a clear message to local leaders and national government that those most at risk from the climate crisis demand action.
We all need to act now to make sure our homes and businesses are kept safe and dry. Shorelines will work with people right across Hull to find out what they think should be done about it – and help them get those in power to respond.
The Murals
Between October 2020 and October 2021, Shorelines created 7 murals with the Hull community - including for COP26 in Glasgow. Have a look through the murals - and use our map to visit them in the flesh!
