A vivarium is a container that has been adapted and prepared for keeping animals under semi-natural conditions for observation or study. In these particular vivaria, you get a glimpse into the speculative future of mutated sea cucumbers, where they have been bred to protect our oceans.
Vivaria 2.0 is an assemblage of ceramics and aquariums, resting on euro-boxes adorned with silver latex ornaments, cast in hand-carved clay-molds.
