Circle of Life (2023)
By Elizabeth Solich, oil on canvas, recycled materials.
Charlie is a Warty Prowfish and can be recognised by its warty skin. Every few weeks Charlie sheds his skin to prevent the build-up of fouling organisms such as algae and encrusting invertebrates. At this time, the skin becomes almost transparent and water appears between the body of the fish and the skin – so much so that the fish almost looks like a balloon. When the skin finally splits, water expelled from the gills forces the skin back and the prowfish wriggles out of its old skin. Charlie wishes you all a wonderful new year and hopes it brings us all many positive environmental changes
