EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Sea Of Faces" we are transported to the deck of a majestic ship, where a sailor stands in awe of the mesmerizing sight before him. As he gazes down at the vast sea, an enchanting transformation takes place - waves metamorphose into ethereal and alluring women. This extraordinary scene is inspired by Gustav Dore's engraving from Samuel Taylor Coleridge's renowned poem, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner. The sailor's expression reflects a mix of astonishment and wonder as he witnesses this surreal spectacle unfold. With his vessel sailing through uncharted waters, he finds himself immersed in a world that blurs the boundaries between reality and fantasy. The artist masterfully captures this moment, evoking a sense of mystery and intrigue. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the power that nature holds over our imagination. It serves as a reminder that even in the midst of our daily routines and responsibilities aboard ship, there is always room for unexpected beauty and magic to reveal itself. This print transports us to another time when sailors embarked on perilous journeys across treacherous seas. It invites us to ponder upon their experiences - their encounters with both danger and enchantment while navigating through unexplored territories. With its rich symbolism and breathtaking imagery, "Sea Of Faces" offers viewers an opportunity to embark on their own imaginative voyage – one where reality intertwines with dreamscape amidst the endless expanse of oceanic possibilities.
