Accidents at a Staircase 2001

"Accidents at a Staircase" (2001) by Dmitry Vilensky, is a photograph that captures the essence of a dilapidated, yet still ornate, hallway. The image features a weathered staircase, leading up into the fading light of a window beyond. The focus of the photograph is a bright, white, spark-like, light which appears to shoot from an exposed pipe towards the stairs and then upwards towards the window. The image captures the artist's interest in exploring the interplay between light, decay, and architectural details in the urban environment.
