14. LIFE BELOW WATER
ACTION
The Forest of Millennia Corals
ACTION DESCRIPTION
Sardinia, known as the "island of centenarians" for the longevity of its inhabitants, should more accurately be called the island of millennial corals.
Over ten years since its discovery in a location kept hidden for precautionary reasons, the University of Cagliari has planned a new exploration to assess the status of the black coral population and gather new insights. This study is part of research activities that include the in-depth exploration of "precious" corals, including the red coral of Sardinia. The monitoring data will play a vital role in working with institutions and helping to establish appropriate protection measures. This may include the possibility of creating a protected area if needed.

Water Art
ACTION DESCRIPTION
The sea and the sky have always embraced Cagliari. The first of the two artworks evokes constellations represented by floating semi-spheres painted with phosphorescent colors and interconnected. Illuminated at night, they will reflect the starry sky on the surface of the sea. Take a moment to look at the water and admire the sky.
The linear and synthetic shape, inspired by a work by designer Ron Gilad, conveys the image of an open door positioned to gently touch the surface of the sea. It invites us to enter another livable space, the sea, with respect and love. Visit www.rongilad.it for more information.
