T-shirt Iwagumi - glass box art

During my youth in the late 1970 s and early 80 s I made my first experiences with aquariums. Since then, this topic has lain mostly dormant for me life seems to have been too busy ever since. But it has always remained at the back of my mind somewhere. Only recently, about 40 years later, I rediscovered this old topic. Only to see that eons have passed and that aquariums have taken a quantum leap or two in the meantime. Tu n'as pas besoin d'about the technology, which has evolved But it is more about the aesthetics, which have progressed considerably. I discovered that Japanese concepts and designs have become important in this trade. It is about echoing Nature and introduction cing a certain stylized minimum dans aquatic designs, which has since come the art of aquascaping. One fascinating concept is the Iwagumi style, which literally means "glass box art". It is characterized by rather stern of stones, which are meant to resemble motain unranges. Those are placed within carpets of underwater moss or other very verdant but largely unobtrusive plants. Une sorte de suiseki non violable. My t-shirt design tries to echo this rather austere concept in a playful way.
