Artificial Jellyfish

Artificial Jellyfish is a series of objects designed to drift in the
water or sit elsewhere on the ground. The chosen design references on
one hand a poignant symbol of the beauty and fragility of our oceans and
on the other reminds us of plastic contaminants. While drifting in
waters or sitting elsewhere on the ground, the jellyfish narrates the
profound impact of global warming and ecological degradation on our
planet. By harnessing the power of solar cells, these artificial
jellyfish continuously capture photos or sense other environmental
parameters in real-time, offering viewers a glimpse into the beauty and
vulnerability of our planet.

The way I chose to intervene in the space with the installation After is through DIY construction and tactile mediation. My intention to reproduce the very thin metal serpentine that is industrially…

    Super Sport #02 is set in the abandoned ΧΡΩΠΕΙ factory close to Piraeus and is an art action made by a group of artists with no specific curatorial line or guidelines, other than the will to explore the potential of experimentation in this kind of environment, so common in the urban skin of Athens.
