Both juvenile convict blennies and striped catfish gather in large groups. With a deep black body and long, white stripe on the top, the juveniles bear strong resemblance to striped catfish. A juvenile Convict Blenny with white stripes running from head to tail The lifestyle of the one-inch to three-inches long juvenile convict blennies is considerably different than that of the adults. Yellowbarred jawfish peeking from its burrow The combination of the appearance of an adult convict blenny, their strong “house-keeping ethic”, and fact that they live in a burrow is what causes many first-time observers to mistake convict blennies for jawfishes like this yellowbarred jawfish. With a little luck, a patient diver will sometimes have the opportunity to see repeated (although short-lived) looks at an adult that is hard at work maintaining its burrow. After “spitting out” whatever it brings to the burrow opening, an adult is quick to withdraw. The ejected matter comes from the complex maze of tunnels that create up to 20 feet (6 m) of living space in the burrow. Mature Convict Blenny clearing out mouthful of sand But daytime observations of the adults at the mouth of their burrow allow us to understand why they are candidates for a “Good Housekeeping Award” as they maintain their burrow by continuously clearing out mouthfuls of sand, coral rubble, and other debris that total up to 6.6 pounds (1 km) per day. Spending the majority of their time in the recesses of the numerous tunnels in their burrow, adults live secretive lives. With a long, slender body shaped somewhat liked those of moray eels, convict blennies live in burrows close to nearshore reefs where the seafloor is comprised of coarse sand and rubble.Īdult convict blennies, like the one pictured above, grow to a length of slightly longer than 13 inches (33 cm).

Umber - Blue, executed in 1985 is a mature work by the artist, and represents his signature aesthetic that he had been developing for over forty years. His work powerfully reflects the Korean sentiments that emerged after the Korean War (1950-1953), and the renewed investigation of materiality, tactility and more meditative approach to art making that drew upon Taoist and Buddhist philosophy. A first generation Dansaekhwa artist, Yun’s iconic oeuvre traces out a singular spirit of silence and purity entrenched in Eastern philosophies of nature and spiritual practices. One of the leading figures of the Korean Dansaekhwa movement, Yun Hyongkeun represents a calm yet resoundingly influential voice in the Korean post-war avant-garde.

Mphasising a cool and detached approach to art making and favouring pared down, purely self-referential geometric forms, American Minimalism emerged in the 1960s as a rejection of the heroic narratives of Abstract Expressionism so dominant in the previous decade. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Which booster can I have?Īustralians over 16 can now have Pfizer or Moderna as a booster, regardless of which vaccines you had for the first two.
