Presentation

Stairs plays with the idea of movement without progress — that feeling of being suspended between up and down, effort and indulgence. A classical spiral staircase becomes a kind of loop or trap, elegant and endless, while the figure sits casually within it, caught mid-gesture.

There’s humour in it, but also something slightly uncomfortable. The image feels balanced and off-kilter at the same time, like a pause taken in the middle of momentum. I like that tension — the sense that this could be pleasure, escape, or avoidance, depending on how long you look.
