“The sea, once it casts its spell,
holds one in its net of wonder forever.”
— Jacques Cousteau
Project overview
Built in 2016, this project aims at sensitising a young audience aged between 18-25 years on a major marine issue that is threatening the biodiversity of our ocean- the destruction of coral reefs.
An exhibition to communicate to the audience through visual storytelling.

The strategy
This self-initiated has been designed to tackle a real issue faced by the Mauritian society. The alarming rate of our coral reef disappearing is a major concern that will negatively affect Mauritian lifestyle if left unattended. This provided a foundation for the project development’s theme- Hybridity.
The term hybridity in this context refers to the mix between various elements-namely, corals and humans. During this experimentation process, a variety of techniques were explored. From the chaotic environments of fractals to the 3D sculpting of corals which allows for more precision and control over form, these methods produced different visual outcomes.
