Shadow Box - #1
Shadow Box - #1
This beautiful and elegant black shadow box features delicate pink algae that is literally popping off the page, giving a 3-dimensional look to the piece. The entire frame measures 10 x 10 inches, with a 5 x 5-inch window and mat. Be sure to check out the other two matching frames in the shop, or buy all 3 in the bundled set!
Every framed art piece features the actual algae preserved behind the glass. Each piece is one-of-a-kind and all color is 100% natural and unaltered. All frames are upcycled and shipping is carbon neutral. Algae is collected throughout the East Coast in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
Algae Art represents the beauty in science. Its vibrant color, elegance, and charm remind us that remarkable things can be found even in the most unsuspecting places. When you support Algae Art, you are helping fund my environmental law degree so I can dedicate my life to protecting this incredible planet we call home. Thank you for being such an instrumental part of my journey.

Shipping & Returns

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
- For original artwork, I recommend keeping your art out of high humidity. Once framed, the color is permanently set with very few exceptions that would be noted on individual items. If you wanted to be extra careful you could keep them out of direct sunlight, but that is absolutely not required. Some even look especially stunning in the sun!
- For tote bags, please spot clean only and do not run them through a washer or dryer as it may distort the print.
- For stickers, they are incredibly water-resistant and can be placed on water bottles, laptops, etc. If you use them on water bottles I would recommend hand washing the water bottles and minimizing water on the outside. They are also fully compostable in any at-home system (even the backing)!
- For greeting cards, simply treat them like you would any card and enjoy!
