Windward Voyager

A tall ship is a lasting symbol of distance and resolve—canvas catching wind, lines held taut, and a horizon that asks for courage and patience. This artwork distills that tradition into a single silhouette, honoring the romance of open water while keeping the form clean and timeless.

In metal, the ship’s hull and sails are defined through bold contours and intentional negative space, allowing rigging lines to read as structure rather than clutter. The wave base is cut as layered bands to introduce motion and depth, while the standoff mount heightens the floating shadow effect across the mastwork and sail curves.

Curator’s Note: Tall-ship imagery is closely tied to maritime trade and exploration eras, often used as an emblem of navigation, discipline, and the enduring human relationship with the sea.
