Opabinia Bini (by From the Shale Plushies)While Anomalocaris takes the number one spot for my favorite Cambrian period invertebrate, Opabinia is a very close second, due to its enigmatic anatomy, featuring a strange proboscis, five eyes, and with a body shape that is similar, yet distinct from Anomalocaris and kin. I was of course delighted when I saw that it was part of the From the Shale Plushies lineup last year, and here we are now […]

Time for some more Opabinia! This is my ongoing series of prints of Opabinia, an extinct prehistoric creature which lived during the Cambrian geological time period, carved by hand in linoleum, printed onto lovely white paper with bark inclusions and collaged with Japanese papers in different colours and patterns.

Opabinia (Paleontologie 🦕)
Opabinia byl rod vyhynulých kambrijských členovců s pěti očima a klepetovitým chobotem. Je znám jediný druh – Opabinia regalis. Její fosilie byly nalezeny v burgesských břidlicích v Britské Kolumbii v Kanadě. Žila v kambrijském období paleozoické éry v období před 500 miliony let. Měřila 5–7,5 cm a předpokládá se, že byla masožravá. Bylo popsáno méně než dvace...

Thinking about fossil marine invertebrates that Kielan-Jaworowska studied at the beginning of her career, made me think of this pattern made from my linocut animal prints with collaged washi papers from the Cambrian Period (from 538.8 million to 485.4 million years ago). 🧵

For a wildcard #InsertAnInvert2024 week we’re going back in time all the way to the Cambrian for the Opabinia! The fossils of this soft-bodied 7 cm long animal are found in the Middle Cambrian Burgess Shale Lagerstätte (505 million years ago) of British Columbia. Opabinia likely caught prey with the grasping claws on the end of its long tubular proboscis (like an elephant’s trunk). 🧵1/2

My art in 2023 (6/12)
June: Anomalocaris, Dragon of the Cambrian. The realisation that most Cambrian creatures were tiny gave me the idea of a whole bunch of them hiding from a 40 cm long Anomalocaris while in positions reminiscent of a D&D party facing off against a dragon.

Presenting: THE #CAMBRIANSMACKDOWN! A silly Tumblr style bracket. I will create a series of polls to determine which screwy looking Cambrian era critter is perceived as the coolest on Mastodon!
Polls will start at 7 days long.
Depending on how well-received this is, the polls may shorten in length.
Polls coming soon. Enjoy. This thread will be for bracket updates rather than the polls.

Another idea: Bracket (tumblr style) of weird #Cambrian explosion critters such as #Anomalocaris, #Opabinia, #Amplectobelua, #Peytoia, #Wiwaxia, #Hallucigenia, etc.

Mighty #Anomalocaris stirs, spreading dust and terror throughout the #Cambrian sea. #Opabinia, #Hallucigenia, #Pikaia, #Canadia, #Burgessia, #Marella, and #Elrathia can only hope the rocks and ridges they cover behind will hide them.
Inspired by a display at the Naturkunde Museum Stuttgart that perfectly showed off the difference in size between Cambrian critters. At 40 cm, Anomalocaris was a leviathan.
