The story
This piece depicts the interior of Captain Nemo’s submarine in 20,000 Leagues under the Sea. It is difficult to accurately capture the experience of peering into this little box. One really gets the feeling that they are aboard the vessel. The squid shown in the rear is a real preserved specimen. The LEDs surrounding it and the green plastic covering it make it look very much like a hologram.
