"The Breakwater" captures the serene yet dynamic interplay between sky, sea, and shore under a cloudy sky. A deep blue strip of sea contrasts with the sandy beach dotted with small puddles. The focal point is the use of hydrophilic crystals—normally found in canvas packaging—to form the breakwater, symbolically halting the sea's advance. This creative choice underscores the tension between natural forces and human intervention, adding a layer of meaning to the tranquil coastal scene. In a time when we increasingly rely on breakwaters to manage the extremes of weather, this artwork poignantly reflects our ongoing struggle to protect our shores.
