Morphic Mimicry

Exhibited at Climate Week NYC 2025.

Healing our relationship to nature is a crucial underlying driver towards humanity's stewardship of life on earth and beyond. This piece explores reverence for nature through embodied biomimicry. Freediving dancers imitate the movement of jellyfish—one of earth's oldest living fossils and a species blessed with biological immortality enabling indefinite lifespan. As the dancers face limits of breath hold and water pressure, the performance is a humbling reminder of human fragility and our place as not superior to natural systems but rather part of them. Performed in Raja Ampat Indonesia by master freediver and underwater dancer Anthea Taeuber.

Between Waves is an art show honoring the ocean — as memory, as movement, as resilience, and as a future we must protect. It’s both a love letter and a wake-up call. This immersive art exhibition celebrates the beauty, biodiversity, and urgency of marine conservation.
