A painting that contrasts the man-made with the natural landscape, based on a diagonal satellite view of Florida reaching from the Bay of Biscayne through the great watershed of the Everglades to Miami Beach and the Atlantic Ocean. The halfway point of the painting is the transition between the Everglades National Park and the greater Miami area; the painting is equally divided between the two types of landscape, just as a mermaid is half human and half fish. The painting is an elaboration of the design for Atlantis, a permanent glass installation for the Miami Beach Convention Center.
