1. The pink seaweed looks like it’s made of plastic. It has such a sheen to it. Collectively, the images look so soft and gentle.

2. The pink seaweed is Irish Moss or Carragheen. It contains a kind of substance like gelatin that is used as a thickener in cooking – sauces and puddings.

3. We have Irish Moss here too, but it looks more burgundy and more textured. It’s harvested here in Nova Scotia as well.

4. The piece of seaweed I photographed had been washed ashore and consequently the colour had probably faded.
