A small trashcan filled with yellow garbage sits on a beige carpet against a blue wall, next to a whitee door.
Dark concrete steps of varying width climb up the image, casting sharp, triangular shadows.
The beige metal and glass rafters of a modern pavilion jut violently into the frame, against a pitch-black sky.
A silhouetted figure holds up a large zipper bag, which holds nothing except for drops of pink fluid.
White, amber, and red lights bounce off of pitch-black water.
A closeup of the corner of a transparent glass sculpture. Streams of blood-red dye flow throughout the otherwise transparent glass.
Two hands use a onyx chef's knife to cut a large pink-red rose in half.
Blobs of shadow cast down upon a grey wall.
The image peeks down a hallway diagonally, through a few doors. The wall is bathed in soft, comforting light.
An out-of-focus yellow-and-blue bedsheet leads up to a window, which casts blobs of soft light downward.
A woman faces away from the camera, engulfed in a vast landscape of rice paddies.
