THE TIPLESS ICEBERG 2021, 260 cm x 165 cm
An iceberg like a multifaceted crystal has sunk into the water. It now rests on the seabed amongst brightly coloured aquatic plants and sea creatures. Different species of fish swim around, alongside sea snakes and imaginary starfish.
It is a beautiful and peaceful world where the iceberg has gone into hiding, and for good reason. Here no one can argue that he is merely the tip of an iceberg; implying that underneath that tip jutting out of the water there is still much hidden danger and misery, as with a real iceberg. There you must always be on your guard, lest you crash into the invisible chuck of ice. Frozen in the weave of this tapestry, the large ice crystal will retain its facets and refined colours while continuing to refer to Utopia, where all is good in the land of imagination.
