The window to the ocean
Created for HATAK
By Kiana Honarmand

About this work:
To me, the ocean is a great source of inspiration. It represents the journeys of water and people throughout history.  These vast waters are pathways and barriers, simultaneously connecting and separating people and places. The Window to the Ocean provides a place to view the waves which bring stories of other people and places.
