Torn and rusted, a shelter for the lost, for the temporal.

A shimmering world lays beyond this portal. It twists, turns and distorts to accommodate our gaze. An ephemeral glance.

The last of Frank Gehry’s IAC shots. These play on sunlight and reflection, a glimmer of another world beyond.

In which our protagonist sees the levels constructed of metal and glass, and thinks of ways to scale the mountain of steel.

A glass arrangement reflects light through a window and mirror. Artificial elegance at its most transparent. A luxury indulgence of shattered illusion.

Which one of these worlds would you rather inhabit? The one on the foreign side of the reflection seems like a lot more fun.

In the second entry in this series, the shadow-crane makes its appearance. This is a nice effect: harsh light hits a jagged structure, but projects a soft abstraction onto the building surface. Bits of texture can be picked up among the different panels.
