III. Steps Through History III

In "Steps Through History III," the interplay of low-key and high-key lighting brings the figure’s journey to life, caught between the harsh backlight and the gentle reflections in the puddles. The jacketed figure feels both contemporary and timeless, as though they could be a traveler from any era. The use of black-and-white photography, combined with sepia tones, lends a nostalgic air to this tunnel scene, inviting viewers to reflect on their own place in time. "The past is never dead," wrote Faulkner. "It’s not even past." This collection captures the essence of that idea—the constant intersection of history with the present.
