About this piece

Viewed from beneath a concrete bridge, paired supports form a sequence of frames converging at a central vanishing point. Turquoise water and bright, cloud-streaked sky surround the shaded structure, while a parallel bridge introduces blue and rust-red lines along the right. Weathered concrete and softened water give the precise geometry a quiet, expansive presence.

The story

Late February finds the water bright with turquoise beneath a broad ceiling of concrete. One pair of pillars holds another within its outline, repeating until distance nearly closes the opening. Beyond the shade, small boats sit beside the parallel span, their white hulls catching the light. The eye travels outward, while the water gathers shadow around each support.
