What the city shows to those who stop

This work depicts a dense, layered urban space, where architecture, traffic, and human presence overlap to form an almost theatrical composition. Motionless silhouettes in the foreground observe the city as one would watch a stage, while behind them, collective movement unfolds without interruption. The chromatic treatment, dominated by luminous blues and orange accents, transforms the public square into a mental landscape. Arches, trees, and facades repeat and double, creating a visual depth that blurs the boundaries between interior and exterior, presence and reflection. The city seems both real and displayed in a showcase, offered up to the gaze. This photograph questions the viewer's position in the contemporary urban space: are we actors or witnesses? It evokes those moments when we stop to watch the city live, while being part of it. Aimed at lovers of contemporary art and narrative photography, this work offers an immersive experience, rich in detail and multiple interpretations, where the city becomes at once setting, subject, and narrative.
