The Sea #01
Beacon
The Sea #01
// The series Beacon by Peter Nitsch explores themes of identity, belonging, and desire. Drawing inspiration from maritime signals, a beacon traditionally guides seafarers to their destinations. Similar, within the urban landscape, bus stops function as beacons among the sea of concrete. After a long day or journey, spotting the beacon on the coastline evokes a sense of relief, and fills the heart with anticipation for home.
At the core of the Beacon series lies photography, offering a distinctive 360º narrative journey that encompasses different media, presented in three parts - The Coast (mixed media), The Sea (photography), and The Wave (collectors reward airdrops).
