The third artwork in The Mariner’s Dreams series, this piece expands the voyage from atmosphere into emblem. For collectors, it represents a pivotal stage: where motifs of attachment, navigation, and history enter the dream, deepening the series’ meditation on how we anchor ourselves in shifting seas of memory and perception. The Mariner’s Dream #3 transforms the anchor into an allegory of attachment — a symbol of safety, commitment, or refusal to drift. Yet within the dreamlike sea that surrounds it, the anchor itself feels provisional, subject to the same currents of erosion and instability that animate the series. Vertical structures rise with an industrial and architectural charge, oscillating between guardians and ruins, suggesting that what steadies us is never purely natural but built, maintained, and just as easily abandoned. Their faint glow underscores the liminal atmosphere: neither beacon nor warning, but a hovering presence in which the anchor takes on multiple meanings. Circular marks evoke navigation and orientation — charts, celestial references, instruments — yet they float untethered, recast as symbols of memory’s tools. Together, these elements ask whether “holding fast” is possible in a sea of shifting vision, or whether mooring itself becomes part of the dream. For collectors, this work stands as a keystone in the series, emblematic of its central tension between intention and perception.
