Description

The Nereids were the fifty sea-nymph daughters of Nereus, the old man of the sea, and his wife Doris. They were goddesses of the sea's rich bounty and protectors of sailors and fishermen, coming to the aid of those in distress. Individually they represented various facets of the sea from the salty brine, to the sea foam, sand, rocks, waves and currents, as well as the various skills possessed by seamen.

This collection of single editions, each piece named after one of the Nereids, imagines the magnificence of the ocean’s coral reefs in ancient times. Each piece is a scattering sunset photograph merged with an image of a coral reef, infused with a little AI, imbued with colour therapy and enhanced with digital editing.
