You are an ocean in every drop,” the exhibition’s title “Seascapes” embodies the abundance of water in the world and the potential abundance within every individual. It beautifully reflects the interconnectedness of humanity with nature, reminding us that we are like oceans ourselves, constantly flowing and intertwined with the world around us.
