Pressed by Desire

Dina Goebel

Mictyris longicarpus (Soldier crabs)

2026
Medium: Resin, pigment, timber panel, perspex box
Available through select galleries

Pressed by Desire reflects on how consumer longing drives repetition and accumulation. Using the familiar form of soldier crabs — icons of coastal memory and abundance — the work initially presents as decorative and desirable.

Cast in resin and plastic, materials tied to ocean pollution, the repeated forms compress into a single field where volume becomes pressure and beauty carries consequence.
