If you missed the making of this one, here’s the full story. 🎨
@reetreweek and her team spent several days on scaffolding at the V&A Waterfront, bringing the Great African Sea Forest to life on @patagoniacapetown ‘s wall ✨🦦 Every creature you see, the kelp, the sharks, the fish, the cape clawless otter at the centre, is a love letter to the marine ecosystem right on our doorstep.
The LED jellyfish installation lights up at night. Because of course it does. 🪼
This is @earthagencyorg ‘s first large scale public mural and we couldn’t be prouder of what this team pulled off.
More to come. ✨🐧🦭🙏🏾🌊
So this happened 😀✨🦦🦭🐟🌊
eARTh Agency’s first large scale public mural is up at the @vandawaterfront , Cape Town. Painted by the incredible @reetreweek and her team @tulips_and_chimneys.tv supported by @patagoniacapetown , a love letter to the Great African Sea Forest 🫶🏾
Within some sort of blessed synchronicity, not knowing initially that Ree was going to feature a cape clawless otter, Bryan has been gently witnessing an otter den near our home over the past few months. As Filipa says about the otters, ‘The patient ones will be rewarded.’ so pls explore this carousel with that in mind. ✨🙂
At night, the jellyfish light up. We’ll let that land when you get there. We’re incredibly proud of this one 🥲 the first of hopefully many more to come! thank you to everyone who made it happen. 🙏
eARTh Agency is a not for profit, ecological storytelling agency working at the intersection of conservation culture, art and spirituality ecology.
And to Ree’s incredible crew who brought this to life
@ninapfeiffer (producer extraordinaire 🥂)
@3rnst4lex (the technical wizards behind the jellyfish magic)
@papsakki climber extraordinaire 🧗
thank you for being absolute legends. 🙏✨
Ps. Don’t bother asking, we will not reveals the otter location 😘
For 18 years Nyoman Kenyak Dana and myself have slowly been documenting the Molitain bog together through our paintings. This is Esmeralda who in the words of fellow explorer @markus_wormstorm ‘ … is blissfully unaware that she is the most sophisticated and deadly weapon ever to be deployed by the Bears. Her little dances are, to her, a celebration of all things pretty. She doesn’t understand the watery death her dancing unleashes.
When on tiptoes, she walks on water—and when she swirls, she summons tornadoes and cyclones from miles away, devastating her father’s enemies.
Walls of boiling water engulf cities and throw enemy battleships around like toys in a bath.“
Painting with Okada ❤️. It feels to me like our lions have been conjured up my mixing together snips and snails and puppy-dogs tails with sugar and spice and all things nice. It’s hard to believe that Okada and I have already known each other for almost 20 years ! It’s feels like just yesterday we were communicating through a Balinese/English dictionary and drawings on a tiled floor to plan out our first sculpture.
Chef Aya ( @aya_chef ) pays tribute to the humble yet nourishing food once cooked by shepherds in the Cederberg at @bakkrans — using fire, wild herbs, and an imaginative twist.
