The left area depicts a lighthouse along the coast, along with two smaller areas that depict a woman and a cup of steaming beverage. The middle area depicts a fishing boat and a map. The right area depicts a pile of fish and an area that contains what appears to be a fishing lure with a circle and slash over the top of it.

- Biographical Information
- My use of multiple images is an attempt to visually describe the character of real experience. Like memories, the images are layered and juxtaposed. Together they give a more complete impression of experience than a single image can provide. (Dennis Cunningham, 1991)
