A5 Sugar Kelp Print – Gyotaku-Inspired Marine Wall Art

A5 Sugar Kelp Print – Gyotaku-Inspired Marine Wall Art
Size: A5 (approx. 5.8 x 8.3 inches) | Paper: Handmade Thai Mulberry | Edges: Hand-torn | Ink: Sumi

This hand-pulled sugar kelp print captures the intricate textures of kelp collected from the Menai Strait, Anglesey, during an exceptionally low tide. With guidance from a marine biologist at Bangor’s School of Ocean Sciences, the kelp was selected at the precise moment and location for optimal detail and accessibility.

Printed in sumi ink on handmade Thai Mulberry paper with layered Masa backing, the work emphasizes the kelp’s ridges, folds, and channels, creating a richly textured, almost abstract composition. Each print is hand-torn and individually made, ensuring every piece is unique.

Part of the ongoing Gyotaku-inspired 6x6 Collection, this A5 print offers a focused study of material, place, and close observation, perfect for contemporary or nature-inspired interiors.
