Since their introduction, their population has exploded and their impact on marine biodiversity has been extremely detrimental. With no predators in the Western hemisphere, and incredibly difficult to catch, lionfish are among the most concerning realities of human animal trafficking. Their proliferation startling and expanding further due to the rising temperatures of ocean waters of the anthropocene.\n\nAs a means to reduce the population of this voracious fish and to protect native fish, marine biologists have partnered with dive shops to organize fishing derbies. These derbies do not stop the spread of lionfish, but result in sanctuaries for native species. While competing in the South Florida Diving Headquarter\u2019s annual Lionfish Derby, I descended a hundred feet into the Atlantic to remove lionfish. \n\nMy proposal for Bienalsur is to perform two more environmental interventions, one at the northern and southern extremes of the lionfish domain: Rhode Island and Buenas Aires. These two dives will function as an artist timecapsule of the temperature of the water and the extent of the invasive spread. \n\nAdditionally, the experimental documentary of my dive in Florida, can be shown online. \nPart essay film, part documentary, similar in format and length to this video, \"Redneck Fishing Tournament\"\n\nhttp:\/\/www.donalddaedalus.art\/videos","space":"If\/when the quarantine ends, this can be another performance in which I scuba dive to hunt invasive lionfish. Being the southern limit of this invasive spread, Buenas Aires, and the northern limits in Rhode Island.\n\nOnline: Video of the diving for lionfish.","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":null,"audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/550d93afe4b0764241f65942\/1578668780913-UWH7YT9EZ5Y4WKXBN98H\/ke17ZwdGBToddI8pDm48kNsv7LvAFWw-H7SE9vXtS0x7gQa3H78H3Y0txjaiv_0fDoOvxcdMmMKkDsyUqMSsMWxHk725yiiHCCLfrh8O1z5QHyNOqBUUEtDDsRWrJLTm1v6GcKqh6mrhfxzW2tqo758c_VzY6yUyJyFiojGR03GI-2zNMhYfh6HBEsuWjy1e\/Lionfishing3.jpg?format=500w","cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"fileCount":3,"names":"Don H\u1ea3i Ph\u00fa","surname":"Daedalus","email":"ddaedalus@gmail.com","dni_type":"PASAPORTE","dni":"490538829","address":"930 GRAND CONCOURSE APT 3B","city":"BRONX","nacionality":"USA","country_id":"236","birthdate":"1983-01-12T05:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1983-01-12T05:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+13474436551","web":"http:\/\/www.donalddaedalus.art\/"}
