Between compression and creation, the work reflects how depth reshapes both matter and imagination
The depth of the sea encrypts a magical, dark and unfamiliar world. Strange creatures moving around and mysterious shipwrecks sunken in the bottom of the sea. This unfamiliar world that has received much attention in Jules Verne,s book “Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea“ is characterized by a tremendous water pressure that persists in its attempt of deforming and shrinking all.The sea floor is the new frontier, and a place of transformation: what-ever came back from it, will never be the same again
