THE SEA INSIDE (STUDIO 10)

In this photograph, the sea is no longer landscape—it is vibration, pulse, a vertical echo of the self. What was once a horizon becomes a line of tension, stretched thin between the weight of the sky and the pull of the water.
The photograph blurs deliberately, like memory under pressure—calm on the surface, tectonic underneath.

Shot just before dawn, during what photography defines as the blue hour, at the Gulf of Baratti in Tuscany, this image is not about the view, but about how the view moves through you. The Etruscan ghosts are still there, not in the ruins but in the atmosphere: suspended, restless.

I chose not to simply observe; I intuitively dragged the clouds down into the waves and lifted the water into the sky, dissolving the boundaries between above and below. I wanted the viewer to float in that space in-between—where the image stops being a scene and becomes a state of being.

This is not the sea as seen from the shore—this is the sea as it exists inside: slow, enormous, unresolved.
There’s no splash, no foam, no cliché. Only motion held in restraint, a silent struggle between clarity and disappearance.
