The Story behind Blue Garden

A further iteration of previous themes, this piece is subtle reminder of the intricate interconnectedness of all of Earth's environments... specifically the interconnection between the health of reef systems and how our agricultural practices have had a major negative impact on reef and coral systems. In this piece, the blue flowers act as a stand in for anemone which famously have a symbiotic relationship with Clown Fish. The message here is that the health of one biome, is intrinsically linked with the health of all others.

About the Artist

Jet Martinez

An influential figure in Bay Area public art, Oakland-based artist Jet Martinez (b. 1973) is known for creating vibrant works of art that engage the traditions of Mexican folk art with contemporary aesthetics.

Originally from the small beach town of Tuxpan, Veracruz, Mexico, and raised in Cuernavaca, Morelos, Martinez takes inspiration from his native culture’s rich traditions of pottery, weaving and embroidery, enlivening the rigid architecture of urban environments with ornate patterns and abstract forms.
