After my husband died, I felt I needed to find a way to speak to him. Inspired by the wives of lighthouse keepers signalling to their husbands from the shore, I used semaphore flags, the language of the sea, to communicate to the vast expanse of the ocean, somewhere away and unknown, like where I imagine he may be.
