JOHN BREWER REEF CORAL FAN STUDY

I was lucky enough to scuba dive at the John Brewer Reef in Queensland in 2022 while visiting MOUA (the Museum of Underwater Art). This reef was stunning and very healthy, the coral varieties on display were very diverse and I was especially taken by the numerous coral fans I encountered. This piece is one of several embroidered coral fan studies created based on the specimens I encountered and photographed on the John Brewer Reef.
