weather the high seas, even as sharks devour the unfortunate whose boats capsize. The bottom panel is laden with a mountain of bones on the seabed. In Endless Journey, the artist draws our attention to the ongoing crisis
of refugees and migrants - many of who perish on the high seas while trying to cross the Mediterranean into
Europe.
