At this very moment, in the depths of Earth’s oceans, alien lifeforms are waiting. Not alien in the sense they come from another planet, but alien in the sense that they’re so different from what we think of as life, they seem not of this Earth. If our oceans harbor organisms that appear extraterrestrial, imagine what we’d find in a literal alien sea?

Polinices is a speculative biology project by the brilliant artist and worldbuilder J. J. Aniorte, which explores life on a planet ruled by aquatic organisms. The infinite forms of this tropical paradise are among the most creative I’ve ever featured on this channel — pushing the boundaries of life as we know it.

There’s a tremendous amount to discover. So, let’s dive in to these teeming waters, and see what awaits us upon planet Polinices.
