Okay, X-Files fans, your favorite picture of the year has just been published. The activists at Fishlove are working to end environmentally damaging fishing practices. Now, a dead eel might still be annoyed to be dead, even if future eels will live better lives in healthier sustainable oceans. But that eel died to keep Gillian Anderson decent, while she got naked for charity. So, if you have ever wanted to see Scully nude with something kind of supernatural looking (and I know you have), now is your chance.
OUR MISSION
Fishlove was set up in 2009 by Nicholas Röhl, co-owner of MOSHIMO, and actress Greta Scacchi to raise awareness of the unsustainable fishing practices that are destroying the the earth’s marine ecosystem. Since then, the Fishlove images have succeeded in bringing the subject of over-fishing to the front covers and pages of the world’s media many times over..
Fishlove is produced by MOSHIMO, the Brighton based Japanese restaurant and is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company, which relies on the tremendous generosity of the photographers who have taken these images and of all the charismatic people who have had their Fishlove portrait taken.
