Artwork text and archival details

Adapted from the artist’s archive.

A deep-blue night sky meets an ocean traced by light. Long exposure brings the repeated movement of waves into luminous bands, while figures in the foreground become indistinct. The shoreline appears as a place where different kinds of presence overlap.

The title suggests a search without naming its object. Reflections, blurred silhouettes and an uncertain boundary between sea and sky leave space for questions of direction and belonging. The photograph holds that uncertainty as part of the experience of looking, rather than resolving it into a destination.

Personal consultation

The work, the space, the presentation.

What interests you about this work? I take time for your questions, its origins and its place in a collection. Together, we explore differences between works and their relationship with space, light and architecture.

Size, selected materials and bespoke framing are carefully coordinated. The precise presentation develops through our conversation.

A photograph of the intended space can help us consider scale and placement.
