Opened 15th March 2025, The Blue Continent – Islands in the Pacific plunges visitors from Bremen into Oceania. In the centre of the permanent exhibition is ‘The Island’ inspired by the atolls of the Pacific Ocean, rising from the sea-blue gallery floor. Surrounding the Island are areas exploring diversity, identity and migration, colonialism, resources and climate change. This redesign shifts perspectives, allowing a collective, non-Eurocentric museum voice to share the stories of the collection.
