This lith print shows a stark, atmospheric urban interior — a long concrete corridor supported by massive rectangular columns that recede rhythmically into the distance. The space feels cavernous and slightly oppressive, emphasized by the heavy grain, mottled textures, and uneven tonal transitions typical of the lith printing process. A solitary human figure appears blurred in motion on the left side of the frame, walking through the corridor. The figure’s indistinct outline suggests transience and anonymity, as if the person is momentarily passing through an indifferent architectural landscape. The motion blur contrasts with the rigid, immovable geometry of the columns and tiled floor. The surface of the print is alive with lith grain: speckled shadows, rough highlights, and cloudy midtones that give the image a weathered, almost decaying quality. This texture softens the hard lines of the architecture while adding a sense of time, erosion, and instability. Overall, the image evokes themes of isolation, movement through liminal space, and the tension between human presence and brutalist architecture.
