Bodies sculpted by water, like Liquid Crystals, slippery. Or broad as capes, swollen with the wind. The catalog of shapes drawn by the oceans gathers a thousand forms and a thousand functions. In common are the two materials that make up the oceanic world. The sky. The sea. Nothing else.

Emerald in Water, the diffuse art exhibition taking place in Havna Bay investigates the form of bodies suspended between sky and sea. Sails, vessels, dolphins, or manta rays are shaped by the same forces, subject to the same rules of hydrodynamics, flows, and fluids.

The works, sculptures, and photographs by the artists of the Metaverse Museum from June 18 to July 8, will be distributed throughout the area in the buildings and spaces, opening the harbor and homes overlooking the small but precious bay of one of the most beautiful lands of Second Norway, by designer Austin Lian. As of Sunday June 12, there are fifteen artists: ten sculptors and five photographers in the exhibition.

The map of the works on display thus becomes an opportunity both to give an evocative setting to the works on display and for a visit to a beautiful land. The exhibition opening will be after the party at 1:30 pm SLT.

To mark the opening on Saturday, June 18, at 12 noon SLT, the artists and curators will hold a party at the Hard Rock Garage including a live performance by J.A.M.M.M., a group of musicians with extensive experience (some of them have been on the SL stage for more than 10 years) who will give us an original tribute show of songs that are rarely presented inworld. Their sources include Fleetwood Mac, Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa, Gary Moore, Falco, Linkin Park, Gossip, Kenny Wayne Sheperd and many others.

All information about the works on display and visit itineraries at the Emerald in Water landing point in Havna Bay, will be available at the initiative’s dedicated Flickr and Facebook pages, or email emerald.inwater@gmail.com

The exhibition is curated by Roxelo Babenco founder of the Metaverse Museum and organized by Stex Auer, of MEET, Digital Culture Center in Milan, Italy.
