Where the Sea Blooms was born from my crossing of the Atlantic in winter 2026: 3,000 nautical miles, 15 days surrounded by water, immersed in the powerful forces of nature and learning to surrender to them.
The horizons, sunsets and deep ocean blues I photographed at sea are reflected in these monotypes.
From a certain nostalgia as the crossing was coming to an end, to the pure joy and awe of setting foot on land after two weeks at sea, there was this moment: a deserted stretch of beach with a solitary palm tree. It became the symbol of the transition between a sense of infinite freedom and the return to the familiar.
