USNS Vandenberg, Miami, acquired at the underwater exhibition by the present owner.
The work actually begins as a composite photograph - a collage of underwater photographs of the submerged ships combined with studio photographs representing people in scenes from everyday life, as well as days gone by. The photographs were covered with plexiglass and then carefully placed into the sea.
While underwater, the influence of the sea attaches to each image.
During the exhibition at the shipwreck divers had the chance to see the underwater exhibition. Spending months underwater, all the pictures develop a real patina. The result of this process makes each picture a unique artwork.
