About the Item
As Gottlieb draws heavily from his work and experience in film, this artwork captures a fleeting moment of human joy at the ocean’s edge — children at play, bodies suspended mid-motion, the sea both cradle and canvas. Washed in the soft haze of overexposed film, the painting feels like memory itself: luminous, ephemeral, and slightly out of reach. Time here does not march forward — it swells, recedes, and circles back, like the tides.
The artwork explores the theme of shimmer: the ocean as a site of entangled lives, temporalities, and inheritances. In its sun-soaked simplicity, the scene embodies the dynamic, relational, and often contradictory interplay between human experience, memory and lived realities.
While the painting speaks of bliss and belonging, it also reminds us that such moments are nested within larger, more turbulent currents. The artworks serves as invitation to linger in the tension between light and shadow, memory and reality, joy and vulnerability.
