This haunting photograph draws the viewer into a stark, unsettling space, capturing the entrance of a parking garage’s stairwell that feels both unwelcoming and mysterious. The rough, raw edges around the concrete opening frame the scene like a portal. Inside, a solitary fluorescent light casts harsh shadows and a dim, cold glow over the staircase—it guides the viewer’s gaze further into the scene to notice the narrow handrail that invites us to imagine what lies around the corner yet offering little reassurance. The photograph evokes a quiet sense of isolation, inviting a slight chill of apprehension. (Photograph captured on 35mm Tri-X film, 1980.)
