Project Overview
CLIENT
Self Initiated Project
BRIEF
Produce artistic works for local art show / competition
CONCEPT
I discovered the blue button jellyfish after finding the blue sea dragons. They are so tiny I almost missed them, only about size of thumbail when open. Their structure is fascinating and intrically symmetrical circular even to the naked eye , can only imagine what they would look like under a microscope. The are incredibly delicate. It took lot of patience and care to relocate them from the sand to a tidal pool to capture a photo. They only wash up on the rarest of times around late summer, and in small numbers compared to the other blue creatures (blue bottles or man - o-war, blue sea dragons, blue sails and blue snails. Like sea dragon, the blue button feeds on the blue bottle.
