A Rusted Memory of Light

On the left, the city breathes under celestial rays—the Eiffel Tower stands still, humbled beneath clouds cracked open by sunlight, as if the heavens whispered through the veil. Time seems suspended, yet light insists on its passage.

 

On the right, a weathered plaque, once inscribed, now eroded. The metal curls at its edge, and the engraved message is long gone. But its trace remains, like a fossil of remembrance. Bronze flowers adorn the emptiness, testifying to a name once spoken, now silent.

 

Together, these images speak of presence and absence, of monuments and memory, of what endures and what dissolves. The hues echo across stone and sky—warm greens and burnished copper, soft golds and faded shadows—linking the sky of Paris with the skin of the grave.

 

Nothing is immutable. Yet everything leaves a trace.
