entry description
My fascination with seaweed has led me to reflect on a way to showcase them so that their shape, colour and texture would be visible to anyone.Presented against a dark background, as opposed to white sand, brings them depth and mystery. Their intricate beauty is enhanced and magnified.
Observing them floating into this dark space, one can perhaps perceive a resemblance to terrestrial plants, to animals and even to humans.
