Linocut print on paper
Inspired by Ernest Hemingway’s The Old Man and the Sea, this work reflects persistence, solitude, and the quiet strength of daily labor.
The fisherman becomes a metaphor for endurance, the act of returning again and again to one’s craft, even when the sea remains still.
“He was an old man who fished alone in a skiff in the Gulf Stream and he had gone eighty-four days now without taking a fish.”
— Ernest Hemingway, The Old Man and the Sea
