This small vintage stereo card by Neville Keasberry brings us a glimpse of a bustling beach scene. It's rendered in muted sepia tones, like a memory half-faded, half-preserved. I imagine Keasberry behind the camera, composing the frame. The way he captures the crowd—a sea of people, each with their own story. The texture of the print invites you closer, to peer into its depths. The thinness of the image creates a sense of looking through a window into the past. It reminds me of the work of other artists from the same time who were trying to capture everyday scenes with the new technology of photography. Photography has this amazing ability to freeze a moment, but it's never really still. It’s an ongoing conversation, with time and other photographs, always hinting at something more. It's about embodied expression and all its ambiguity, inviting us to look closer, to wonder, and to see differently.
