The cyclic narrative of the Pacific Gyre is driven by immense oceanic global systems much greater in period than human industrial processes. Oceanic currents disperse our petrochemical utilitarian objects of desire ultimately making their way back to the shoreline. The forces at work shift and move huge volumes of water and waste materials around the globe. Circulatory systems such as those in the human body, as well as patterns seen in nature and mathematics have inspired artists for centuries. Virgin wilderness as once explored by artists and scientists now seems lost, the post-Darwinian world seems perhaps by some as devoid of mystery, whilst for others, there is still much beauty to experience in a complex and varied world in which we exist along with other forms of life on earth.
