This striking image features a group of four silhouetted figures, each wearing a fedora and carrying a briefcase, crossing a stark, illuminated crosswalk. The figures are arranged in a linear progression, emphasizing a sense of movement and purpose. The background is predominantly dark, enhancing the contrast with the bright white crosswalk lines and blue pedestrian signs accentuating the scene. The overall composition invokes a feel of urban sophistication and mystery, with the monochromatic tones adding depth to the imagery.
This painting would be an excellent addition to a modern office environment, corporate reception areas, or an art gallery focused on contemporary themes. Its dark, moody aesthetic and dynamic figures evoke a sense of ambition and the hustle of city life, making it a fitting choice for spaces where creativity and professionalism intersect.
Image from my Dystopia series - After retirement I have expressed a lot of my feelings in my photographs. It has been very therapeutic. When making this series I went through my mental journey in the past years by picturing it as a dystopian society. Little human facing a faceless society was an easy role to play. I have taken a lot of self portraits so it was obvious that I play the role of a human in these pictures myself. Looking at the world now, the pictures also work on a larger scale and not just as one man's battle inside his head.
