Mer Interieure 

Dominique Appia's "Mer Interieure" is a surrealist painting that depicts an underwater scene viewed through an open door. The viewer is presented with a juxtaposition between the mundane, represented by the interior room, and the fantastical, represented by the underwater scene. The painting's composition, with the viewer's perspective placed at a point where the interior space meets the underwater world, highlights the tension between the two realms. The work is characteristic of Appia's style which focuses on the human condition and the relationship between the inner and outer worlds.
