The separations of the seas
In Babylonian mythology, the world was created through the division of the primordial sea into fresh water and salt water.
A tiny time capsule- or perhaps still an ongoing event:
Sculpture formed from an egg membrane filled with fresh water, placed in the ocean.
The semi-permeable skin allows water molecules to pass, but blocks salt ions.
The outer calcium shell dissolved; calcium ions rearrange within the sculpture, echoing the calcium waves that mark the first sign of life in humans and other animals.
