fin folk
Fin Folk presented a daydream-like portrayal of life forms beneath the waves. Hoping to draw attention to the inconspicuous watery world of weightless, acrobatic beings living under a glimmering surface, and to remind us all to heed and take to heart the well-being of our waterways.

Fin Folk includes free-standing sculptures, 3-dimensional wall hangings, and digital art
Jeff & Dale Ocasio collaborate on building characters and small worlds that live somewhere between folk art and storybooks. Sculpting with masking tape over wire and reclaimed objects is where their artwork begins.
Each sculpture is encased with layers of acid‐free glue, color is added with more layers of acrylics, mixed media and protected with matte varnish. Many of their sculptures are featured in their own original digital illustrations.
