TITLE: Drifters in Monochrome

This series shows jellyfish glowing softly in darkness, their bells like lanterns and tentacles trailing like delicate strokes. Without color, they become pure form and motion, drifting like living shadows. Each image reveals quiet grace—slow pulses of light and gentle, weightless movement.

AUTHOR: Christina Ford (United States)

Christina Ford is an artist drawn to the vivid beauty of the world and the sense of wonder it inspires. Having spent her life near the ocean—from Micronesia and Saudi Arabia to both coasts of the United States—she has been shaped by travel, culture, and the breathtaking places she’s called home.

For the past 30 years, Christina has lived in the Santa Cruz area, where the dramatic landscapes of Northern California continue to captivate her imagination. Nature remains her greatest muse, fueling her photography and mixed-media work. In addition to photography, she explores creative expressions that evoke stained glass, decoupage, and abstract compositions rich with color, movement, and light.
