Christopher Columbus Photograph

After a long time sailing at sea, Christopher Columbus and his crew spot a bird. Hope surges as they consider the possibility that land may not be too far away. Supplies of food and water are running low. Christopher Columbus and his crew start to feel a glimmer of optimism. It's remarkable how much significance a bird can carry. Christopher Columbus, an experienced seafarer and navigator, has spent a substantial part of his life at sea, undertaking numerous voyages. His most renowned expedition in 1492 resulted in the discovery of America. Having sailed the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, Columbus was well-versed in prior discoveries and sea routes. His extensive maritime experience influenced his decision to seek a western route to Asia, ultimately leading to the discovery of America. The work is a result of my years at sea in my youth. I reflect on the infinite horizon, the crew, the rhythm of the sea, the hum of the engine, etc. The guiding principle for the image is "Simplicity is the ultimate Sophistication" (Leonardo da Vinci).
