Shadows wider than the ocean

Beneath an endless blue sky, small sails drift across still water, their colours stretching into wavering reflections below. The landscape is peaceful, yet there is a quiet sense of distance—as though the boats are caught somewhere between staying and leaving. “Shadows Wider Than the Ocean” explores the way something small can leave an enormous presence behind, and how what follows us can sometimes feel larger than what is actually there.
