At the Bottom of the Sea – Fish

Vibrant, surreal, and full of movement, At the Bottom of the Sea – Fish by Fernando Andriacci transforms marine life into a mosaic of pattern and form. This hand-painted ceramic tile features a colorful fish rendered in bold sections of turquoise, orange, violet, and gold, surrounded by spiral currents and angular waves — all framed in a dynamic gold-and-black wooden border. Set against a soft coral-pink background, the fish becomes a central figure in a dreamlike underwater scene, both grounded in Oaxacan tradition and elevated through Andriacci’s contemporary style. His use of geometric layering and expressive detail invites the viewer to see more than just a fish — it’s a symbol of motion, energy, and visual storytelling.
