The space of the harbor, in the form of a dematerialized dock, displaces the "eternally" docked ship-museum into its dynamic history. The effect of a reflection on the surface of the sea, created by the reflection of the asphalt after the rain, materializes the absence of the dock (a "mirror terrazzo" in conjunction with the recycled metal coating and the existing asphalt). With its length, the reflective section/mirage reconstructs the dimension of the ship, which can be seen as docking in a temporal jump ahead of the construction of the dock. In a programmatic sense, the experience/ illusion of the visible/set piece/photo and video background is initiated. Once docked, Galeb takes over the role of a platform with a massive programmatic frequency.
