A core theme in the works of Violet Dennison is to address the constant changes taking place across the entire ecosystem of our planet caused by humans and their reciprocal influences and effects as part of a complex overall structure. Using the analogy of the threat to water as a habitat caused by environmental pollution, the artist has developed her own group of works whereby she collected dead seaweed washed up onto the shores of Italy and the USA and mounted it directly on the museum wall. The chronological process of deterioration is then continued as the exhibition progresses. Individual parts begin to break away and fall to the ground. At the same time, a new circuit develops whereby the seeds dropped by the seaweed are transported into the outside world by the visitors to the museum.
