Brief Description: Night Sea Crossing is a reminiscence of what is lost over the course of a life and what is gained. This work is a 'leave taking'; an opportunity to take a breath, to take stock, and consider the journey so far. By the shore of a river, vignettes from life are played out, showing most recent memories first and distant ones at journey's end. This sequence of images is a reflection of the journey between life and death.
