Dreaming, Marcel Van Luit, Digital, 2018

This is so beautiful. I love staring at it, watching it loop. The giant menacing creature is beautiful and gentle seeming and the innocent little girl standing unaware, it all comes together and flows so nicely. Or maybe she is aware and is offering her friendship.

So I tried showing this to my sister who has a huge fear of underwater or thalassophobia. I thought this wouldn't be too bad since it was so beautiful and had the light colors in the waves and the flow was constant, no surprises. But she couldn't quite handle it. Is there any way you could try to make a piece oriented towards those with this fear. I get the heebiejeebies myself but can still stand it.
