poster for the exhibition; there's a black background and a beautiful jellyfish in the center. Feared and misunderstood, jellyfish are often dismissed as little more than ocean pests. Over 100 species of jellies live in Norwegian waters, but most people are unaware of the delicate balance they bring to marine ecosystems. Which roles do they play? Why should we care about them?

The exhibition Jellyfish unveiled, created by the “Manet Team” at the Department of Natural History and the Michael Sars Centre at the University of Bergen, invites you to explore new perspectives on jellyfish and the impact they have on the ocean. Changing the way we think about jellyfish can be challenging, but these images offer a unique glimpse into the positive aspects of their lives and the crucial contribution they make to our waters.

Make sure to visit, it opens on October 4th!
