The Living Sea – Fragile Beauty is an exhibition featuring the work of Prince Hussain Aga Khan, and celebrates the beauty and magic of the ocean. The exhibition sheds light on stunning vistas and hidden wonders under the sea, and importantly, highlights critical issues of environmental sustainability.
About the Photographer
From a young age, Prince Hussain Aga Khan developed a keen interest in conservation, tropical fish, reptiles and amphibians, and began scuba diving at 14. Travelling to the tropics frequently after secondary school, Prince Hussain began taking photographs of fauna and flora on a trip to the Brazilian Amazon in 1996.
Multiple expeditions, often organized jointly with scientists or professional photographers, have led him to create an extraordinary visual archive that covers various geographical areas and habitats as well as a large number of marine and terrestrial species.
His exhibitions have been shown internationally and aim to inspire admiration for wildlife and the desire to protect it. Collections of Prince Hussain’s photographs have also been published in four books, Animal Voyage (2004), Diving into Wildlife (2015), Fragile Beauty (2022) and The Living Sea (2022). Proceeds from the sale of his books are donated via Focused on Nature to shark, cetacean, or sea turtle conservation.
