Missing Sea

In Search of Sea - Rob Gonsalves

A very nice transition from Rob Gonsalves. The image starts on the left with a ship floating in a wavy ocean, the sails down. Further to the right the wind starts to set and the ship start sailing, apparently also transforming. On the right, the transformation is complete. The baffled spectator sees a seventeenth-century galleon sailing above his path in the middle of the desert.

"This work by Rob is quite intricate." I like the idea of ships sailing in one instance and then the next the one is left in the air above the hills. Its as if the sea changes to doves and the sky is blue to make it look like the ocean.

This work is also not an Impossible World as it is just an outside work, there is no inside. But the idea of ship working from possible to impossible is a good idea. Exit would be the same.

The zone below you could enter from below where the man is, and exit at the far end. And vice versa.

This work also has 2 zones, the top one you would enter from the far end of the sea, where the ship is in the distance.
