Forensic Oceanography

Forensic Oceanography is a collaborative project between Lorenzo Pezzani and Charles Heller in which they "critically investigate the militarised border regime imposed by Europe across the Mediterranean Sea". Pezzani is an architect based in London and Heller is a film-maker based in Tunis. They began in 2011 within Forensic Architecture. Forensic Oceanography's investigations form the basis of reports and visual interpretations, which have been exhibited in art galleries and at art festivals in Europe.

Projects
The Left-to-Die Boat (2011), about the European migrant crisis, "drew on an astonishing array of surveillance tools to document the case of a distressed migrant boat [. . .] without intervention from nearby Nato vessels, resulting in the death of 63 migrants." Blaming the Rescuers (2017) "dismantled allegations made by agencies such as Frontex and leading European politicians, who claimed charities were encouraging smugglers to use more dangerous tactics on the treacherous passage between Libya and Italy"; and "the idea that rescues by NGOs are to blame for an increase in migrants crossing." ==Group exhibitions==
