The disruptive lace in a pattern of chaos and rapid turmoil reflects the ocean's state of unrest under current conditions of ocean warming. For many years, the effects of human-made pollution have been significant on the ocean waters, ecosystems and organisms’ livelihood.
The colour palette used has an emphasis on the unpleasant colours of brown and green, which signal to pollution and specifically oil spills. The whitewash is formed in large masses due to pollutants present in the water.
The salt-like borax crystals mimic salt that appears on clothes after being submerged in seawater. Their ephemerality and fragility symbolise the impermanence of the ocean's life, currently on the road to death.
The wires within the mesh quadrant allow the form to be adjusted freely, creating representations of an angry or calm sea. The sea of rebellious uproar, or defeated in weakness against human pollution.
