Forgotten Seas is a feeling, it’s just disguised as a book. The book is split up into three parts, which encapsulates six years of research of Tanja Engelberts into the world of the offshore oil and gas industry. The different types of paper, printing and photography convey a feeling of dread, awe and guild. The contrast between Engelberts pictures, and the images from her collected archive brings this feeling even deeper.
