I identify with black and white photography (can you tell?)
If you look at my instagram feed for even a minute (actually less) you'd guess correctly that I identify with black and white photography to a great extent.
That said, I do actually see in color (even though I am lacking in some of the greens, browns and reds) and am moved to action by it when I feel it calls strongly enough. This is one of those times.
This is a baggage claim area in Marseille’s international airport.
The color grabbed me immediately and as happens often, I asked my family to hold on a moment while I explored.
I was not only taken by the colour (I like the English spelling) but how lonely the space looked inspite of the vibrance of the palette.
If you know remedial color theory then you know that warm colors (as shown here) are meant to make you feel better, more comfortable and cozy.
That being the case, why does it seem to make this empty space all the more stark? Something to ponder (or not).
