This art piece activates the nostalgic sentiment of the “seaside” pastime in a distinct manner. It’s a contemplative ambience permeated by the visual notes depicting artist’s sensations, fascinations, erstwhile artistic and life experiences, as well as influences from different surroundings. The video Cavtat represents a mélange of static frames depicting Mediterranean landscape(terrace of the seaside family house), as well as artist’s personal photographs, projected onto a monochrome Himalayan paper.
