Abstritti 33
“Abstritti 33” explores the cyclical nature of being. Shot in midtown Manhattan, it captures a weathered wall layered with torn posters. Through color and light, fragments are recomposed to reveal the paradox of being in a state of both creation and destruction, of being both finite and infinite.
