Termite Feeding Show by Zhang Xu Zhan at Kohta (Teurastamo, Helsinki) was so enjoyable! It’s the last week of the show, make sure to check it if you have the chance.

Beneath the thin layer of oxidized (read: rusty) iron dust that blankets the planet, a lot of Mars is hues of grey and black. Drill holes are a great way for us to see this! 🔭 🧪

Detail of ‘Mineral Fold’ (2023)

‘Mineral Fold’ (2023) is a small sculpture I made with deconstructed rapakivi granite. Fired to 1280°C, some minerals are still intact while others have slightly melted.

Fun fact: “Rapakivi” is one of only a few Finnish loanwords to the English language, of which the most famous one is of course “sauna”.

Rapakivi granite as found in Kirkkonummi, Finland.

A favourite to work with: Rapakivi granite.

“Rapakivi is a Finnish compound of "rapa" (meaning "mud" or "sand", while rapautua means "to erode") and "kivi" (meaning "rock"), because (..) exposed rapakivi crumbles easily into sand”

I fire the rock to 1000°C before using it.

Thanks! I’m new on this platform and thrilled to find out here is something like #PhycologyFriday 😀

Sea palms - *Postelsia palmaeformis* - on a Northern California rocky shore. This kelp species looks sort of like a miniature golden-brown palm tree, with a thick, stubby stipe (~ trunk) topped with a cluster of long blades (~ branches). Amazingly, its closest relative is the bull kelp, *Nereocystis*.

It’s #PhycologyFriday! To celebrate, like and pin the “Algal Awesomeness” feed. It auto-curates posts about algae, serving up all kinds of phycological goodies from science to art to food. bsky.app/profile/did:...

Textile works by Gry Rask Sørensen. Seaweed, salt and ceramic sculptures and photographs by Annick Ligtermoet.

Tidevann at Huuto Gallery, 2019.

Tidevann (Norwegian for ‘tide’) is a project about changes in natural processes. Many of the materials used in this project are found in the intertidal zone: seaweed, stones, salt and water.

Fond memories - In 2017 I attended an artist residency in Lofoten. From early morning to late evening I collected and experimented with local materials, it was an amazing time.

The resulting project, Tidevann, (together with Gry Rask Sørensen) was exhibited in Huuto Gallery in 2019.
