Shot as a street portrait, but what interests me here is the imbalance: the face is close, dark, almost carved into the frame, while the city behind him is blown into white noise.

It feels less like a portrait “of” someone and more like a small collision between a person and the street apparatus around him.

I keep coming back to the hand at the jacket. Tiny gesture, large weather.
