‘THE DANCE OF THE PETRO-JELLYFISH’ (‘LE BALLET DES PETRO-MEDUSES’), Revelations Exhibition / Banque Populaire Foundation – Grand Palais Ephémère – Paris

A sense of poetry and a fresh perspective combine to transform the detritus of our everyday life into a marquetry-style patchwork of cigarette stubs and anemones, as discarded plastic bottles are transformed to resemble a coral reef. Repurposed plastic bags and bottles, and discarded fishing nets and ropes have undergone a process of transformation to create a family of Petro-jellyfish floating in a forest of algae bloom. This artistic creation pays tribute to the beauty of nature and raises awareness about endangered oceans.
