Xenia

2023

Xenia" encapsulates the enchantment of my coastal childhood in Gensan, where the sea was just a stone's throw away, a playground of wonders. Amongst the myriad corals, Pulsing Xenia took center stage, a living aquatic spectacle. Hours were spent in awe, witnessing their underwater dance – a gift from the Greek name itself, Xenia, meaning "gift."

During low tide, secrets were unveiled as temporary water ponds appeared, offering a gateway to the mesmerizing Xenia corals. Walking through these ponds, the squishy sand beneath our feet, we marveled at the corals' intricate details and vibrant hues. It was a front-row ticket to an extraordinary underwater realm.

Though Gensan may now be a distant memory, the pulsing Xenia still brings a smile, reminding us that even in the tiniest moments, the ocean shares its wondrous gifts, a treasure trove of joy and wonder.
