"Climbing Alone, Under a Borrowed Light"

We see her through a window, leaning on the handrail of a staircase that climbs toward some floor we can't quite make out. The window frame turns her almost into a painting, and that gesture of her hand on the railing betrays a quiet, silent movement.

Everything is bathed in a dense, almost amber yellow, as if the light itself carried the memory of another moment. The woman's silhouette becomes nearly a total shadow, stripping her of features, of age, of identity. She could be any woman climbing any staircase, in any old building, in any city that still holds that kind of light in its hallways.

There are strange, dense buildings, with creaking stairs, trembling railings, and dim light — disorder and chaos always play in favor of the photograph... Those almost invisible, everyday instants suddenly become worth a second look.
