“Like a shadow that does not permit us to jump over it, but moves with us to maintain its proper distance, pollution is nature’s answer to culture. When we have learned to recycle pollution into potent information, we will have passed over completely into the new cultural ecology.” – William Irwin Thompson

 [dNASAb] is not fascinated with the calcium carbonate skeletons of dead corals or the fetishization of lifeless fossils. His love is born by the hyper specialized patterns, the insane fluorescent colors, the motion of the corals in the flow, and the symbiosis of different species collaborating to thrive. That is why he sets forth to refurbish them with color and dynamic sculptural components. He creates sculptures in the studio from the rubbish and other reclaimed materials. The finished sculptures then get re-integrated, temporarily, to the environment from which it's materials and inspiration were salvaged. The sculptures are filmed in varying depths, at different times of day and night, via underwater photography and scuba diving_ in an effort to "restore beauty to the entire ecosystem, if only temporarily"

[dNASAb] Video Sculpture "Coral Head_Screens for Eyes, Plastic Shit for Brains_Obscene Plasticene Daydream #4" 2022

 [dNASAb]_Video Sculpture _

"Eyes are the window to the Soul; and anyone who can see will know the love and power of a health reef ecosystem" OR_"Coral Head_Screens for Eyes, Plastic Shit for Brains_Obscene Plasticene Daydream #4" 2022

Reclaimed ocean styro-foams, up-cycled marine debris+plastics from beach cleanups (bottle caps,syringe,kids toys,monofilament,..) LCDscreens, screen shipping materials, recycled plastic, epoxy, resin, airbrush paints, fiber optics, LED's, unique 1 of 1 4K video of remixed montages of real Coral Reefs in South Florida remixed with HD 4K video.

“Like an Ocean gyre , a vortex of artifacts of a consumption based contemporary society such as; plastic bottles and bags, fishing nets, and helium balloons become en-snarled with driftwood, dead coral, and seaweed creating a grotesques amalgamation of disparate materials which remarkably can still harbor life and be a sculptural framework for life to grow. I aim to develop work that embodies this contemporary conundrum.”[dNASAb]
