There is a beautiful simplicity to the concave shape of a boat's hull. It is organic and architectural at the same time. Their presence in the sea is noted by their weight; they displace the water around them.
Boats represent a journey. However these boats are not moving. They are not sailing over water, but rather tethered, still and silent. They represent a journey inward. This stationary pairing of two boats connotates a relationship, perhaps constraining, perhaps supportive.
