Whispers of Stillness

This cyanotype juxtaposes the deep Prussian blue with pale silhouettes that suggest a tension simmering just below the surface. The empty pitch serves as a stage for hidden truths, where anticipation hangs heavy and shadows of deceit linger in the air. It's a commentary on the unseen layers of competition and the masks worn in the world of football.
