HumanAquarium submerges the viewer into the world of oceans, marine mammals and invasive species.
Having opened its doors in 2019, it is only the first stage of the exhibition.

A collaborative effort with ‘The Yorkshire Life Aquatic’, ‘Plastic Free Me’ and ‘Immortal Bloom’, my work connects the projects together taking you down a meandering path of recycled plastics made into seaweed, a coral wall, sea grasses and bespoke jellyfish that captivated the wide usage of plastics.

Visitors to the exhibition found the coral wall and jelly fish mesmerising and spent much time looking up into the lights and moving in and amongst the coral and jellyfish. This was a really strong edition to the rest of the exhibition and we definitely plan to collaborate with Rachel in the future.”
