Rules in Irregularities

Author: Kyeong Jun Kim / South Korea

Aquarium Size/W120 x D60 x H50 (cm)

Comments from Stu Worrall

A really nice natural diorama design with small spots of red in the shoal and at the top. There's a good mix of green shades to stop the design being too monotone in colour whilst showing just enough wood hardscape to keep the detail. I think a brighter focal point in the centre would have benefited the scape design.

Comments from Chen Anjin

The composition split the whole tank naturally with different components. The huge coverage of green matches the flow of woods perfectly.

  • Resilience - IIAC 2023 #01 Juan Puchades / Spain

    Resilience is a project that was born thanks to a trip to Vivarium in the Netherlands. There I found a piece of wood that had multiple virtues: dynamism, uniqueness, natural beauty and a considerable size. I dedicated many hours to find similar pieces that could complement it. From that point on, the design had to strike the perfect balance between three elements: stone, wood and planting.

  • Curves - IIAC 2023 #02 Ant Long Tran Hoang / Vietnam

    Curves is the name as well as the shape of material of my aquarium. The suitable aquatic plant shapes emphasized curves of rock also created the flow of underwater streamline too, and the flow is the main idea of this layout.  

  • FALLEN - IIAC 2023 #03 Tran Duc Minh / Vietnam

    In my work this year, I aim to offer viewers a different perspective that allows them to experience strength, power, and strong reflections between dark and light, near and far, big and small, without deviating from the beauty of nature. In addition to taking meticulous care of the vanishing point, I utilized all the remaining space in the aquarium. Regarding the plants, I have tried to take care of them so that they are in the best growing conditions. Lastly, I am grateful and thankful to the IIAC Steering Committee and the judges for recognizing my work.

  • Evergreen Valley - IIAC 2023 #04 Bahtiar Gigi / Indonesia

    I was inspired by my city, the city of Depok, which has lots of caves in its rivers, and lots of very lush trees. And finally I made a middle cave in the aquarium.

  • Memory of the Eye - IIAC 2023 #05 Cho Jae-Sun / South Korea

    We first experience nature visually. This artwork stemmed from that visual inspiration, naturally prompting thoughts on how nature perceives us through its own visual lens. How will we appear to nature? We hope that we and nature will discover each other's beauty and cherish it.

  • Sound of Silence - IIAC 2023 #09 Efrain Sequera / Spain

    In this work I have tried to create something powerful but at the same time transmits serenity. A strong contrast that captivates the viewer. I hope I achieved it and that you enjoy that feeling. The inspiration is taken from a large tree with strong roots in a cloud forest environment.

    About mangkol, inspired by a small forest on Mangkol Hill, simple but meaningful, it is not easy to make it as similar as possible, but this indicates that nature is a source of inspiration for aquascaping
