ARTIST’S REFLECTION
“There is something about a marlin in motion that is pure ocean poetry. I wanted to capture that energy—the rush, the grace, the razor focus of a creature built for speed.”
— J. Libro
Marylin - Signature Collection
CURATOR’S NOTE
The Marlin captures the spirit of speed, strength, and elegance that defines one of the ocean’s most iconic predators. Its streamlined form and dynamic silhouette suggest a creature always in motion— driven by instinct and purpose.
As with all of John Libro’s work, the beauty lies in the assembly of found pieces that have been shaped by wind, waves, and time—coming together to create something both powerful and timeless.
