Microfibre towels with digital prints of original Cyanotype printed artworks by Aly de Groot featuring either a jellyfish or turtle design on the front. Sustainably digital printed on microfibre cloth made from recycled plastic water bottles. Keeping plastic out of landfill and oceans so that the turtles, jellyfish and all their friends are happy.
About the Artwork
The Cyanotype process is an alternative photographic process invented in the 18th century . I placed my woven jellyfish f onto recycled paper painted with the photo sensitive cyanotype chemistry. The paper turns a beautiful blue, and the spirit of the plant is captured. Plant pigments from Eucalypts (gum leaves) are painted and poured around the blue so as to imitate and celebrate the colours of the sea and coastline in my favourite places. From the oranges and reds of the rock pools and cliffs to the sparkling blues of the sea and sky. Weaving the tragic tale of sea life in the plastic age. Lamenting the impact of marine debris upon remote coastal communities and landscapes .
Digital Printed in Australia with low impact printing ink on microfibre mare from recycled plastic bottles.
