Louisiana poster with the work Floridae Ocean (2024) by the German biologist and philosopher Ernest Haeckel, published in connection with the exhibition HAVET in the fall of 2024. The posters are printed on Sirio Pearl Oyster Shell, which gives them a fine mother-of-pearl effect.
The poster is based on the work Nature's Forms of Art (1899-1904) by the German zoologist Ernst Haeckel. Haeckel's work is a unique blend of scientific investigation, speculation and artistic creation. Today we know him especially for his beautiful drawings of single-celled organisms, fungi, plants and animals, in which he artfully idealizes the symmetrical forms of nature.
The OCEAN was Louisiana’s major event of the season (2024). A journey of discovery above and below the surface, where history and the present meet at the intersection of art and science. We know more about the surface of Mars than about the world’s oceans, which cover more than 70% of our own planet.
Please note that the mother-of-pearl effect cannot be seen in this image.
