Offers a contemporary visual interpretation through the classic diving helmet figure, which is a nostalgic symbol of industrial aesthetics. The artist not only depicts the object but transforms it into a new icon through the rhythmic and contrasting power of graphic language. The artwork's divided background color – turquoise and red – represents not only visual balance but also two different dimensions or worlds (staying on land – diving into the sea, consciousness – unconscious).

The sailor's knot, intricately crafted at the bottom of the helmet, serves as a symbolic reference to the maritime connection. This knot symbolizes both protection and loyalty, while simultaneously becoming an eye-catching metaphor placed at the very center of the visual: like the unresolved knots in the human inner world... The bold lines, saturated colors, and graphic simplicity drawn from pop art direct the viewer not only to the object but to the intellectual infrastructure behind it. This symbolic structure carries traces of an ironic dialogue that the artist establishes with both the past and the human-machine relationship.
