UN@80: A Kenyan-British ceramicist's plea for the Blue Oceans

To mark the 80th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations, Kenyan-British ceramic artist Megan White highlights her long-standing artistic theme: the Blue Oceans. Having grown up on the Kenyan coast, Megan has a deeply personal connection to the sea that profoundly shapes her work. Her art illuminates the underappreciated beauty of often-overlooked marine life, such as crustaceans, lobsters, and oysters. Through her art pieces, she aims not only to change people's perspectives on what is beautiful, but also to send a powerful message: protecting our oceans is essential for protecting ourselves and securing the future for the generations to come.
