Pacific Coast Seaweed in Wrack

California seaweed, collected, dried, pressed, and preserved.

Getting to know seaweed from the California coastlines. Collected from wrack, cleaned, dried, pressed, dipped, & pinned. “Wrack” is the term for seaweed, surfgrass, driftwood, and other organic materials produced by coastal ecosystems that wash ashore on the beach. Created by Jennifer Parker with help from Anya Chytrowski and a few fabulous contributions from Gene A. Felice II’s collection when he lived in California in 2012-14.
