The artwork aims at raising public awareness through an impactful artistic message consisting in the representation of a biological composition linked to the preservation of waters. The painting aims also at the recovery of the historical tradition through the combination of different disciplines such as art of the territory, material recycling, ecology and eco-sustainability, biology, geology, history and archaeology. Historically, the marine nature describes this process of memories erosion that, resurfacing across the time from history, in the form of marine sedimentations, focuses on the sea, as a way of crossing, source of trade and crossroads of peoples. In the painting in fact the anthropic artefacts (such as rest of amphorae and wood fragments) represent the remains of a wreck lying at the bottom of the sea by testifying the passage and stratification of memories of ancient populations across the Mediterranean, their trades and traffics.
