Artificial Jellyfish is a series of objects designed to drift in the water or sit elsewhere on the ground. Depending on the nature of the experiment, they either capture a photo or collect other parameters of the environment and send over the network to a server, accessible online. The chosen design references on one hand a poignant symbol of the beauty and fragility of our oceans and on the other reminds us of plastic contaminants. While drifting in waters or sitting elsewhere on the ground, the jellyfish narrates the profound impact of global warming and ecological degradation on our planet. By harnessing the power of solar cells, these artificial jellyfish continuously capture photos or sense other environmental parameters in real-time, offering viewers a glimpse into the beauty and vulnerability of our planet.
