Aldo Trim
For Marc Augé
While taking the picture i was thinking of Marc Augé´s ´Non-places´, his study and reflection on spaces of hyper modernity.
The photo displays a passenger tunnel in one of Madrid´s subway stations, one of these typical places which are meant to transport people without animating anything, no action, no thought. The only reference your eye has is the end, there where the destination is.
I put my tripod with cam on one of the belts and took a few long-exposure shots, causing the motion. In photoshop i only worked on the toning and colors. Unfortunately the belt was vibrating, resulting in a little unsharpness of the stairs.
Added to theCream of the Crop pool as most interesting.
