A Year Around the Sun
Valerie Piraino
Overlaying nautical knots and maritime objects in a shrine-like arrangement over a ghostly overturned boat, this piece is a memorial to the current refugee crisis in the Mediterranean Sea. Suggestive of both an aftermath of a wreck and a shelter, the piece is a poignant appeal for empathy.
