SAM RITTENBERG
Walls

'Walls' explores the cyclical nature of being through six images of weathered walls - from the north coast of the Dominican Republic to urban Soho. Whether showing fading paint with weeds or peeling posters that suggest decay and renewal, each image attempts to capture the paradoxical interplay of destruction and creation. Color, light, and compositional changes were used to invite viewers to reflect on the protean nature of beauty and being and offer a visual meditation on the endless cycles and profound connections within the fabric of the universe.
