Fata Morgana, 2016

 

Fata Morgana is a an unusual and complex form of superior image that is seen in a narrow band right above the horizon. It is the Italian name for the Arthurian sorceress morgan le fay, from a belief that these mirages, often seen in the strait of messina, were fairy castles in the air or false land created by her witchcraft to lure sailors to their deaths.

 

Fata Morgana represents the unknown and the temptation to discover even if it is frightening and unpredictable.
