Charleston || Perspectives
Looking up, ahead and into the night. Charleston is always dressed to the nines.
An evening walk along Church Street and The Battery; grand mansions, gas lights, a classic car casually parked outside, feather bow ties. The iconic Hat Man on Church Street corner with 47 Broad Street. Look carefully: how many hats can you count?

Rain of Light
My title, not the artist’s. The artist left it untitled so I thought, what if I call it ”Rain of Light”, isn’t it more fitting? Presumptuous may be, but it was the first thing that came to mind when I saw it illuminating the stairwell, making it an integral part of the museum rather than a solely utilitarian feature. I instantly thanked myself for choosing to take the stairs instead of the lift.

”Untitled” (America), 1994
Twelve light strings, each with forty-two 15-watt lightbulbs and rubber sockets, at the stairwell of The Whitney Museum of American aRt.

It snowed
And the City woke up in a haze. Dreaming still.
Meanwhile, at street-level, business as usual.
Real life was going on.
With a touch of salt, melting the snow and turning it dark brown with patches of grey.
Just another Saturday in winter in the City.
