30 years in the making, Lieberman’s Ocean series is an evolving body of work that explores the ecology of the sea and mankind’s relationship to it. Through sculpture and fine art photography, Lieberman reflects on mankind’s intimate connection with the ocean. We evolved from the ocean and rely on it, as do the sea creatures and birds that inhabit and feed from it. The ocean is living and breathing, and its health is inherent to us socially, economically, politically and most importantly for Lieberman – spiritually.
Like the pull of the tides, Lieberman’s work returns again and again to the ecology of the seas, reflecting the organisms it supports and the interaction between each other and their environment.
The female Octopus starves while raring her eggs, holding on until they are hatched and able to survive independently. It’s the ultimate sacrifice, and a reminder of the duty of man to honour next generations with a safe and harmonious inheritance of what we leave behind.
In the image Wedding Veil 01 - here symbolises our marriage to the oceans, and our duty to treat it with enduring respect and love.

Fish Tale 01 is the image of a fish tail hanging from the mouth. Hereby hangs a story of this relationship; it’s the taste of consumption between man and the seas. The sounds, the smell, the joy, the fear, the mystery, the happiness and the tragedy are all interlinked into our folklore and pysche around the world.

With their armored outer shells, crustaceans protect their vulnerable soft flesh - Lieberman juxtaposes them against exposed human nakedness, lowering the shields that we might raise spiritually or physically. Like us crustaceans can alter their appearance by inhabiting other forms – moving from one shell to another.
Empty shells are discarded homes, which man delights in recycling to decorate our homes and bodies which we have done since the beginning of time. Both aesthetically beautiful and practical - let us not forget the power of the Conch shell to incite celebration or alert warning in times of need.

Journal de Mer is an ongoing series, which examines different countries, continents and places that have a deep connection with the sea. Journal de Mer expresses the rapid state of flux in chronicling the journal/diary about the sea. Paradoxically, a human constant is the power of distraction and our eagerness for it – away from the matters that will challenge us to think and do better. Through newspaper collage and hooked seafood imagery, Journal de Mer confronts us with this accusation.
From this series of work now comes the Critical Mass Series, continuing to use the billboard in some of the new imagery but this time with newspapers from many countries around the world, but all stating in different languages the problem of plastic pollution, and damage that is affecting our seas, and oceans.

The intrinsic architectural beauty of some of our oceans sea creatures homes are a never ending marvel, and one of the treasures our oceans wash up for free.
The beauty in bones of any kind, and the subsequent stories they tell are endless. In this section you will find the Sharks jaw bones and teeth, creating the series Handcuffed.
This imagery creates a prisoner of man, a victim bonded between the Sharks teeth – but death has foreshadowed this. Here lies a question; who suffers most from pollution and overfishing? Is it the oceans, or is it ourselves?
