installed in a glass staircase.

The image is of the ruins at Selinunte, Sicily. It was another cloudless day in mid August that created a perfectly flat background. As I looked through the view finder to decide whether I should make a landscape or portrait shot that the image appeared. It looked like some kind of architectural alphabet. So instead of deciding to take one or the other I used both perspectives and wove them together with my technique of segmented film forwarding.
It was only after development that the colors would create the adjectives in this ancient libretto.
