The Collector's Gaze
An older gentleman in a dark suit stands with his hands behind his back, studying a row of paintings in a gallery. Light falls across a checkered floor and a wall of glowing ochre and gold. The paintings he looks at hold their own shadowy figures, so the viewer becomes part of the artwork. A thoughtful piece about the quiet relationship between art and those who love it.
