The polar regions, once steadfast in their icy resilience, are witnessing a dramatic transformation. The Arctic sea ice is fracturing into smaller floes, as intricately captured by NASA's MODIS along Greenland's east coast. This fragmentation, driven by warmer waters and shifting ocean currents, signals profound changes within the Arctic ecosystem.

The Fram Strait, the Arctic's main sea ice exit, is seeing a marked decrease in ice volume. Thinning ice, now more vulnerable to wind and current, is altering not just local conditions but also the global ocean conveyor belt, a vital regulator of Earth's climate.

Parallel to the Arctic's plight, the Antarctic confronts its own crisis. Sea ice extents plummeted to near-record lows in early 2023, a trend that persisted into 2024. This rapid decline disrupts the Antarctic's ecological balance and the broader oceanic heat distribution, challenging scientists projections of the region's climatic influence.

THE CARBON BOMB MAP: There are currently 425 fossil fuel extraction projects around the world that will generate more than one gigaton of CO₂ (1 GtCO₂) during their operation

AI highlights the issue of marine pollution caused by sunken vessels, which is expected to peak this decade, with over 8,500 shipwrecks at risk of leaking approximately 6 billion gallons of oil. It is imperative that we do not overlook the ongoing and unprecedented degradation of our oceans.

I would also like to share some of my recent readings. The links are there. https://www.carbonbombs.org/map

Started in July 2022. The sculpture took more than a year to complete. The sculpture's dimensions are 44 inches by 34 inches by 10 inches.

The mixed media approach utilized in this artwork not only incorporates 3D corn fiber printing techniques but also adds a unique texture and depth to the sculpture.

The LED lights strategically placed inside the resin further enhanced the artwork's immersive experience, captivating viewers from every angle.

CORAL REEFS

2025/2026 Immersive installation titled "In the Darkness, Life Follows the Light" by W/M

These diverse ecosystems, located in the depths of our oceans, are home to 25% of marine life and provide shelter for countless others. These diverse ecosystems, which cover less than 1% of the ocean but harbor 25% of marine life, are home to a wide range of life, including fish, invertebrates, turtles, and algae. Corals, often mistaken for rocks, are actually animals with polyps that build intricate limestone exoskeletons, forming the foundation of coral reefs.

Symbiotic bacteria, such as symbiotic bacteria, defy toxicity, creating an entire ecosystem where sunlight never reaches. Their resilience teaches us about adaptation and interconnectedness. Coral reefs also have a unique symbiosis in sunlit reefs, where photosynthetic algae called zooxanthellae play a crucial role in exchanging nutrients and oxygen within coral tissues. Deep-sea corals survive in cooler waters and in darkness, relying less on photosynthesis and more on capturing food particles from the water.

Climate change poses a severe threat to coral reefs, with rising sea temperatures leading to coral bleaching. Rising carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere also contribute to ocean acidification, making corals struggle to build their calcium carbonate skeletons under acidic conditions. Coral bleaching can lead to mortality if conditions improve, but prolonged stress can also lead to mortality.

Conservation efforts include establishing marine protected areas (MPAs), coral restoration techniques, community engagement, and global action through international agreements like the Paris Agreement. Understanding the genetics and adaptation mechanisms of some coral species can guide conservation efforts

In conclusion, coral reefs are vital ecosystems that sustain life even in harsh environments, highlighting the importance of preserving these vital ecosystems. By reducing carbon emissions, supporting conservation organizations, and spreading awareness about their importance, we can help protect these vital ecosystems and ensure their continued survival.

Mix different components, most of which are made from recycled materials. A combination of paint, latex, and other materials is used to create these sculptures, which produce an eye-catching work. To maintain the artwork's longevity and quality, varnish is also applied. The sculpture "Throw Up," which provides the collection an intriguing contrast, is set against a distinctive backdrop of wood canvas.

I think my work can motivate people to take accountability for their actions and make sustainable decisions by highlighting the seriousness of the situation. Through my artistic pursuits, I hope to inspire others to take up the cause of combating climate change and to foster a sense of shared responsibility. We can build a better future for ourselves and the next generation if we work together.

Title: A Silent Cry for Help

Immersive sculptural installation Dimensions: Minimum 10 ft high (adjustable per venue)

Concept Overview

A Silent Cry for Help is an evocative, site-responsive sculpture that immerses the viewer in the graveyard of our oceans—an arresting visual metaphor for ecological neglect. This installation serves as both eulogy and warning, inviting intimate engagement with the silent suffering of marine life caused by human excess.

A chaotic tangle of marine debris ensnares the sculpture's geometric core, creating an intentional visual language of entrapment, stillness, and slow deterioration. This is not a depiction of life—it is an omen of extinction.

Structural Elements and Materials

Primary Structure: A geometric sculptural form, suspended and stabilized by two custom-fabricated metal hook rigs. One is floor-anchored; the other is ceiling-mounted. If installed indoors, additional structural reinforcements will be provided to ensure secure suspension.
Marine Debris Layering:
- Tangled ropes, fishing nets, and discarded lines represent entrapment.
- Plastic bags, coral fragments, weathered seashells, and handmade algae are interwoven, chosen for their visceral resonance with environmental collapse.
- Each item is purposefully placed to evoke a sedimentary layer of discarded humanity.
Color Palette: A muted monochrome spectrum of soft whites and creams removes visual distractions, compelling viewers to confront the solemnity of the scene. The absence of vivid color deepens the work’s mournful tone and universal appeal.
Oceanic Base Construction: At the foot of the sculpture, a high-gloss mirrored surface mimics the illusion of water—conjuring both reflection and metaphor. Over the mirror lies a spread of sand, evoking the sea floor and further grounding the oceanic narrative. Embedded within the nets are scattered shells and debris, reinforcing the sedimented texture of marine decay.

Soundscape and Auditory Layer

Whale Songs: Surrounding the sculpture, an ambient soundscape of recorded whale calls will resonate intermittently. These vocals—deep, plaintive, and unmistakably mournful—transform the entire space into a shared listening chamber of ecological grief.
Wind-Activated Shell Chimes: Suspended at varying heights throughout the installation are handcrafted wind chimes made from natural seashells. When disturbed by airflow, they produce delicate, accidental music—soft, almost imperceptible reminders of life’s fragility.

This dual-layered sound environment makes the piece not just seen but felt—physically and emotionally.

Narrative and Message

The absence of fish or human figures is deliberate. This void is not empty—it is filled with forewarning. We are the missing bodies. In ignoring the cries of the ocean, we risk becoming the next casualties of our negligence.

A Silent Cry for Help is a poetic yet uncompromising plea to protect our waters, our kin, and ultimately, ourselves.

Technical Requirements

Minimum ceiling height: 12 ft
Weight load tolerance: Rigging points to support suspended sculpture and wind chimes
Sound: Ability to loop audio playback at low ambient volume
Lighting suggestion: Soft directional lighting in cool tones to enhance shadows and depth

Intended Impact

This installation is more than an artwork—it is a call to awareness, a site of mourning, and a space of collective reckoning. It is designed to provoke reflection, stir empathy, and catalyze conversation around climate responsibility, especially as it relates to our oceans.

Project Abstract

A Silent Cry for Help is a sculptural meditation on marine extinction and human neglect. Constructed from reclaimed oceanic debris—fishing nets, plastic remnants, and coral fragments—it immerses viewers in a monochrome seascape of loss. Suspended geometric forms and handmade wind chimes evoke a fragile, vanishing world, while a haunting soundscape of whale calls reverberates through the space. This project is not a lament for what is lost—it is a call to protect what remains. Presented during Climate Week 2025, this immersive installation seeks to transform ecological data into visceral truth through art.
