🐠 As we continue to spotlight our global arts movement, Inspired by Iconic Fishes, we are delighted to introduce Kelley Whitley – an educator, scuba diver, and ocean artivist.
Deeply moved by declining reef ecosystems, Kelley painted a reef fish every day for 100 days, dedicating 20 pieces to #IconicFishes. Blending scientific precision with art, she gifts original paintings to strangers on dive trips to inspire ocean conservation.

🪡 Spotlighting ‘Costume for a Seahorse’ by Russian artist and painter Natalia Goncharova from 1916!
Originally designed for Serge Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes, this striking costume transforms the graceful silhouette of a seahorse into a wearable work of art!
We hope this piece reminds you of the beauty and uniqueness of our #IconicFishes and inspires you to dive deeper into their world to learn more about them. 🔗(https://www.iconicfishes.art/updates/costume-for-a-seahorse-by-natalia-goncharova)

A new creation has joined our global arts movement, Inspired by #IconicFishes! It’s a collaborative mosaic made up of 135 artworks, an initiative led by artist Mayali Geyling while volunteering with our Philippines Seahorse Program.
She designed 135 unique tiles and invited people of all ages, from around the world, to paint, draw, or illustrate in their own style. Once completed, the individual squares came together to form one unified artwork.

The 1859 artwork ‘Ocean Life’ gives a wonderful impression of the real-life complexity which few humans then had the chance to see; Helen Scales describes some of its 75 species. For those of us looking out for #IconicFishes, a #seahorse & #cornetfish stand out. 🧵 3/

The fish with trumpet-like snout & the "web-footed horse" illustrated by JB Clark for 'The Surprising Adventures of Baron Munchausen' are surely #IconicFishes - & can you find the seahorse in the second image, 'Water' by Giuseppe Arcimboldo? 🧵 2/

I hugely enjoyed ‘Ocean Art'. It’s teeming with wondrous creatures, & human perceptions changing due to both art & science. Helen Scales' first book was on seahorses, & here it’s her first image.

🏮🧧 Our team member reimagined the traditional #LunarNewYear blessing, “May you have abundance year after year,” with our #IconicFishes.
Fun fact: The word for abundance (yú) also sounds like the word for fish.
Send this to someone you’re wishing abundance to this year. 🐟🧧

You feel it, don’t you?
That pull.
That little spark in the shadows of my curves.Come closer.
Turn me slowly.
I reveal myself in whispers—
a new silhouette with every delicate touch.I’m not here to be understood all at once.
I’m here to captivate you…
again and again."Siren Song"
