Sea-horse, New York Aquarium

A New York Aquarium seahorse, but make it street-ready.

Sea-Horse takes a 1912 postcard from the New York Aquarium—seahorses floating through reeds—and drops it into a modern geometric frame. The result is bright, lean, and a little surreal, like an underwater scene cut into a pattern repeat.

It’s light on the neck and heavy on character, the kind of piece that looks just as right with a T-shirt as it does with a sharper jacket.
