Creating Coralations: Melody Jue and Finding New Coral Protagonists

Creating Coralations: Melody Jue and Finding New Coral Protagonists

We sat down with Melody Jue for a second episode to discuss her new work Coralations, a fascinating deep dive into the coral we know and the coral we need to know. Though tropical corals inundate perceptions of coral, there are other deep water and cold water coral that have different connections or coralations to anthropogenic climate change. By rethinking "normative coral," new media across photography, sci fi, and more come into the light.
