In the millions years ago, when human doesn’t exist on earth, dinosaurs was living on it. We know it because, we found some fossils and bones which remains of them. We are sure that, they aren’t exist today, but it doesn’t mean that they don’t restored to life again. For hundreds of years, human is living on earth and they made many dangerous changes just for being comfortable such as industrial factories, nuclear waste, plastic rubbish. So, many of them is effecting on earth, plants and animals and marine in sea. It’s not so far to see some strange animals with changed genetics. They can be new generation of dinosaurs. We infect oceans and sea without any attention which they will destroy forever and we will loss them. Without them, we can’t be live also.

In this art work, I made a jellyfish with two wings. It’s changed genetics jellyfish. Most of the materials are from recycling things such as iron and others are fabric. The height of it is about 3 meters and people can go under it and seat. On the other hands, this installation is an alarm for human to be more sensitive about the environment and sea.
