"Beer in Palmovka 2"

from the Prague series

A single figure stands before an urban setting.
A cloth covers the mouth and nose; a glass of beer is held.

Tram tracks, a passing tram, and overhead cables structure the background.
The city continues to move as the figure’s action remains on hold.
Everyday closeness is present, execution withheld.

The paper cut depicts a state of pause,
where ritual and reality no longer coincide.

Cut from lightfast paper.
Unframed.
