The second piece is an underwater photograph I took while living and working in Cancun, Mexico. This image, infused with shades of deep blue, captures a captivating scene where the underwater world meets the sky and land. Above the surface, the faint silhouette of palm trees lines the horizon, adding a touch of tropical serenity to the composition. The layers in this photograph—spanning from the underwater realm to the distant land and sky—symbolize the interconnectedness of different worlds. It conveys both a sense of tranquility and reflection, while hinting at the vast mysteries and beauty that exist beyond what we immediately see.

Both works together symbolize layers in the physical sense, and also the emotional and experiential layers that shape our understanding of the world.
