Isabella Campos' "Changing Corals"
Isabella Campos (Winter Springs, Florida) depicts coral reefs transitioning from vibrant and healthy to bleached and dying in Changing Corals, a large sculpture meticulously created solely through manipulating paper.
“My piece is a large coral reef made entirely of paper. It is 38" by 32" at the longest points either way. The piece shifts in a rainbow from brightly colored corals to solid white corals, depicting the shift from vibrant, healthy reefs to bleached, dying reefs. The piece is meant to both highlight the beauty of our world's reefs and to draw attention to the tragedy that is coral bleaching.”
