Also described as “Drifters” or “Wanderers” Plankton are a group of organisms that rely on the winds, currents, and tides of the ocean to get from one place to another. Plankton are building the base level of the marine food web - but not only as a food source but also as a carbon sink the wellbeing of plankton is essential for a future of humanity.
Physalia Physalis - also known as “man-o-war” - belongs to the siphonophores and is a colonial organism. Inspired by the collaboration between the zooids I applied groups of textures to this Necklace. The Physalia Physalis lives at the oceans surface, passively moved by the winds, tides and currents, using a sail-like floatation bladder. The “sail” of the colony just as the zooids (that differ in function but not genetically) display a diverse range of colours.
