SOMETIMES WE CALL THE OCEAN A COLD GRAVE, SOMETIMES WE CALL IT THE ORIGIN OF LIFE ITSELF. IT COVERS SEVEN-TENTHS OF OUR PLANET, AND WE HAVE EXPLORED ONLY ONE-TWENTIETH OF THE OCEAN. WE KNOW LESS ABOUT THE OCEAN'S DEPTHS THAN WE DO ABOUT THE MOON ACROSS THE FIRMAMENT. THE FASCINATION FOR THE OCEAN LIES NOT IN WHAT WE KNOW BUT IN WHAT WE DON'T KNOW. WE HUMANS ARE DRIVEN BY THE GREED FOR KNOWLEDGE AND THAT IS WHY WE DIVE INTO THE DEPTHS OF THIS LAST UNEXPLORED PART OF OUR PLANET. WHAT WE DISCOVER THERE CAN ENCHANT OR DISTURB US, IT CAN BRING US KNOWLEDGE OR DEATH. WE WILL EXPLORE LONG FORGOTTEN CIVILIZATIONS AND SEARCH FOR OUR ROOTS. NO ONE CAN SAY WHERE THE JOURNEY OF HUMANITY WILL END, BUT WE KNOW WHERE IT BEGAN, IN THE CALM AND ROUGH SEAS OF THE INFINITE BLUE OCEAN.

In this third work that I publish here on SuperRare I try to realize a picture that I have in my head for a long time. Until now my technical possibilities limited me in rendering complex animations. With my new workstation it is now finally possible for me to capture my thoughts better in images. I used Cinema4D, zBrush, Marvelous designer and Substance Painter. For the rendering Octane was used.
