Oceanic 31 is a new shark and ray art project from The Shark Trust.

We have brought together artists from a variety of backgrounds who are passionate about wildlife, conservation, and using art as a tool for positive change. The artists have kindly agreed to donate the pieces to our cause. Each artist has focused on one species of Oceanic Shark or Ray.

The full 31-piece exhibition is on tour around the UK between Summer 2023 and Autumn 2024. Finally, the pieces will be auctioned off, with funds going towards the Big Shark Pledge. Limited edition prints are available for some of the pieces.
