The Beauty of Pollution

My project developts from a provocative idea that wants to be an eye opener to the current environmental situation: Oceans and Seas are being attacked by pollution and waste material that destroy entire living ecosystem. Water is life and we are destroying it. The connection between marine creatures and pollution is created by the image of the jellyfish. Predatores which feed from this marine creature, often mistakenly prey on floating plastc bags because their shape and appereance resemble a jellyfish. This fatal error brings an end to their life. My project is a Marine Museum that wants to resemble the image of a Jellyfish, an extremely important animal for the ecosystem. Installation are all made from plastc waste found in the ocean and arranged in such a way that they resemble sea creatures, in order to better understand the difficulties that marine animals face daily. The museum illumination takes inspiration from a natural phenomenon: bioluminescence; which is typical of some species of jellyfish.
