Throughout the year, the CIMASUB TOUR 24/25 will offer a series of photographic exhibitions allowing the public to immerse themselves in the beauty of the underwater world.
These exhibitions are a unique opportunity to admire the 24 best photographs submitted in the festival's annual competition. The selected images transport the viewer to some of the world's most spectacular seascapes, from colourful coral reefs to dark depths inhabited by mysterious creatures. The award-winning photographers include Joan Barcia Ubeda, whose work received the Golden Banister and the PADI award, and Merche Llobera, winner of the Silver Banister. Also recognised are the works of Rowan Dear, awarded the Bronze Banister, Daniel Landa with the best photographs of the Cantabrian Sea, and Diego Carral Maceiras, who received the IUCN award for his environmental commitment.
The exhibition includes not only the winners of the competition, but also internationally renowned artists such as Gaetano Gargiulo, Jenny Stock and Massimo Giorgetta, among others. Each of the photographs on display is a masterpiece that captures the beauty and complexity of marine ecosystems, and invites us to reflect on the importance of their conservation.
These images not only have an aesthetic value, but also a profound educational impact. By showing the fragility of underwater habitats and the species that inhabit them, the exhibitions seek to raise awareness of the urgency of protecting our oceans. At a time when climate change and pollution are endangering marine life, these photographs are a visual reminder of what is at stake.
In addition, CIMASUB aims to take these photographic exhibitions to other locations throughout the year, so that more people can enjoy them and understand the importance of caring for the oceans. The exhibitions are ultimately a tribute to the art of underwater photography and a celebration of the photographers who, through their work, help us to see the world from a new perspective.
In conclusion, the CIMASUB 2024 photo exhibitions offer a visual and educational experience that connects the public with the wonders of the ocean. An unmissable opportunity to admire the talent of the best underwater photographers and to reflect on the importance of environmental conservation.
