Description

Mare Nostrum

Within the language of Mediterranean Icons, Mare Nostrum evokes the Mediterranean not simply as a sea, but as a shared cultural memory. Fragmented figures and veiled presences seem to surface and recede like traces carried across water, suspended between myth, history, and lived experience. The composition suggests a fluid territory where identities meet, dissolve, and reform, reflecting the Mediterranean as a space of passage, encounter, and transformation. Here, Mare Nostrum becomes both landscape and memory, a symbolic sea holding the echoes of countless lives and civilisations.
