Into The Ocean: Journey Beneath Opens At ArtScience Museum

Into the Ocean: Journey Beneath is now open at ArtScience Museum, running from 6 June to 1 November 2026 at the Basement 2 Galleries.

What Makes It Different

The exhibition’s core draw is OceanX footage captured with advanced submersibles. MBS says some footage has not been publicly shown before, giving the show a documentary and science angle alongside the art installations.

Artists named on the page include Marshmallow Laser Feast, Marco Barotti, Jana Winderen, Robertina Sebjanic, Lachlan Turczan, Sissel Tolaas, Ong Kian Peng and bit.studio.

The result is less like a standard aquarium visit and more like a staged descent through ocean environments. Go in expecting projections, sound, objects and scientific context rather than tanks of live marine life.

Sands Rewards members also have a limited-time 25 percent ticket offer at the ArtScience Museum counter while stocks last, according to the exhibition page. ADEX attendees have a separate exclusive-rate note when presenting an ADEX pass.

Visitor Advisories

One gallery includes flashing light elements, so visitors with photosensitive conditions should approach with care. From 7 August onwards, Jana Winderen’s sound work at the Rain Oculus will be unavailable on Fridays from 5.30pm to 8pm.

If you are planning a family visit, give the exhibition enough time. It is framed as a descent through different ocean zones rather than a quick photo stop.

For a calmer route, visit earlier in the day and avoid stacking too many immersive shows back to back. Deep-sea sound and low-light environments can be absorbing, especially for younger visitors.
