By 2025, scientists predict that there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish—a sobering reality that underscores the urgency of the global plastic waste crisis.

In partnership with SC Johnson and Conservation International, The Blue Paradox is an immersive experience designed to engage audiences in a deeper understanding of this complex issue: while plastic is essential to modern life, it is also a force of destruction.

Originally installed in London in 2022, the short-term exhibition received an extraordinary public response. Now, a long-term commitment has been made with an innovative, multi-year installation at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry, USA, ensuring that more visitors can engage with this critical conversation.

As composer and sound designer, I collaborated closely with Treatment Studios and Radical Media to create an original score for the Room One film, along with musical and sound design compositions for all corridors and the remaining four rooms. Additionally, Room Three featured interactive displays that required custom UI sound effects, developed from sonic motifs present throughout the experience to maintain a cohesive auditory environment.

"Our oceans sustain all life on Earth, yet the plastic waste crisis threatens their health on an unprecedented scale. Solving this challenge requires businesses, governments, and individuals to work together. But with knowledge comes hope—hope that awareness will inspire action."
