In-Camera Multiple Exposure, Liquid Silver emulsion on watercolour paper

This photograph illustrates the enduring local belief that every seagull carries the soul of an old fisherman, an ever-present guardian of the sea.

Rooted in maritime folklore, this idea symbolises the deep bond between coastal communities and the ocean, where the lives of fishermen and the rhythms of nature are inseparably intertwined. The image invites viewers to reflect on the stories and traditions passed down through generations - tales of hard work, resilience, and the enduring presence of those who once braved the waves.
