 anian marine algae.\n\n\n\nKelp are large\, marine\, brown algae which t
 end to grow in cool waters and are important habitat for fish and other 
 species.&nbsp\;Tasmanian kelp species include giant kelp\, bull kelp\, s
 trapweed\, crayweed and common kelp.&nbsp\;\n\n\n\n"I first became inter
 ested in kelp when I read that 90% of giant kelp in Tasmania has disappe
 ared over recent decades due to ocean warming and related factors. I sea
 rched for giant kelp fragments washed up on beaches and became fascinate
 d by the variety of different seaweeds with their myriad patterns and sh
 apes. I made drawings of giant kelp\, and blue cyanotype prints from oth
 er seaweed specimens I dried and pressed.&nbsp\; From land\, one of the 
 most obvious kelps is the leathery bull kelp around rocky parts of the c
 oast in shallow water.&nbsp\;Its gold-brown\, glossy blades are swirled 
 by the waves in quite mesmerising ways and inspired me to several painti
 ngs.&nbsp\; \n\n\n\nWith this exhibition I hope to spark the viewer’s 
 interest in the many species which are usually out of sight underwater."
