when I saw this at the little marine museum on Ynys Cybi * Holy Island off Anglesey, I imagined what it would be like to be inside it and to be lowered in to the sea with a feeling of being encased in the metal and glass and to be able to watch the sea life going past.  I would feel very claustrophobic and yet it must be fascinating, but also darker than imagined , depending on what sea you are in. It looked fairly roomy inside and it was possible to stand in it and there were shelves to lean on while looking out.

I once met a scientist who worked on the divers chambers for decompression when they were a new development, she told me stories of how when the project was in its infancy she would drive back and forth across the country in her mini to see the results of each diver going in and coming out. This item reminded me of that.

Below is the coastal landscape near to the lighthouse.

More paintings when I get new canvas.
