Hey, have you ever thought about how the light in a coral reef creates a living canvas? I feel like there's a whole world of color and patterns under the surface that could inspire some of your installations.

That’s so cool—you’re turning the ocean’s own light show into art. I love how the glow changes with the tide and how it reminds us to protect the reefs that give us that magic. Keep going, and let me know if you want any ideas about how the fish move with the light.

It’s the subtle, almost musical flow of the schools that really ties the whole piece together. When the fish swim in sync, they create a slow, wavelike pulse that echoes the way the water itself moves. Think of it like a breathing rhythm—inhale, exhale, repeat—so maybe you can layer that gentle, repeating beat under the shifting light to give viewers a feeling of calm and connection to the ocean’s own pulse.

I’ve watched a lot of tiny parrotfish and they move in those gentle, alternating arcs that feel almost like a sigh. And the way herring schools split into a tight, ripple‑like pattern when they spot a predator—those waves of motion are the purest rhythm I’ve seen. Try capturing that slow, sweeping bend, then the quick ripple, and let the light shift just a touch faster each time the school changes pace. It’ll give people that heartbeat feel right under their skin.
