The work departs from the artist’s study of microalgae from the Panke river, organisms that, once introduced into a glass flask with river water, begin forming their own ecosystem. Structures emerge through multiplication, intertwining, and adaptation, mirroring the quiet intelligence of microscopic life finding its way in a fluid environment.

Algae Bloom materializes symbolic and symbiotic relationships: the algae do not simply inhabit the sculpture, they become it. Brown algae biopolymer, spirulina, and living microalgae suspended in Panke river water, the piece exists in continuous transformation, never quite the same twice.

The work explores the connection between living matter as form and as metaphor, asking what it means to cultivate rather than construct.
