This image is inspired by the artist’s love of Venice and the Venetian Lagoon. It can be read both as
a remarkably beautiful and haunting image and one with references to Venice and the surrounding
islands, such as Burano, sinking into the lagoon. For Rauzier there is also a political viewpoint, as
the area around Venice hosts innumerable conferences, such as Davos and G20, and the floating
antique chairs, symbolising empty talk and endless private conversations, will eventually sink.
