About

The collection of horseshoe crab blood by US drug companies for research, even though synthetic alternatives exist, is poorly regulated, cruel and needs to stop. The crab shells are painted black to convey demise. They float over a bright crab-blood blue background and are arranged carefully to feel like a museum antiquity of the past.
