Motion of the ocean is a work
created by the sun and the motion of kelp in the ocean. The technique is
cyanotype (blueprint). During an Artist In Residence near the Dutch shore i
observed the movement of kelp (seaweeds). The motion on the water intrigued me.
I printed the kelp with the sun on paper that i prepared with a light sensitive
emulsion. The dept of the artwork reminds me of the layers of life and movement
in the deep ocean. I fascinated by the story behind this kelp, to what places
will this kelp travelled to dancing on the waves and current? I wonder how the route
of the kelp will change dure to current changed caused by global warming and
climate change. Kelp is a huge source of life for many animals and plankton in the
ocean.
This artwork is also applied for the water themed work.
