In this work, the boat-like forms and handwritten words evoke maritime journeys and the Mediterranean landscape. Its title draws on a poetic fragment associated with the ancient Greek poet Alcman, bringing together themes of departure, exile, homecoming, and the enduring influence of classical culture.
