Untitled 2018

This "Untitled" image, by EtchingRoom1, probably created digitally, makes me think about the process of constructing realities, or worlds. The stark black and white palette, combined with the overlay of architectural elements and figures, has this quality of a blueprint but it's also a bit like a storyboard, maybe for a silent movie? I'm drawn to the contrasts, how the solid black shapes of the water or the train's body sit against the thin, almost ghostly lines of the bridges. Look at the figure diving, or maybe falling, beneath the bridge - it's like a little drama is unfolding in each section. It reminds me of some of the constructivist graphics from the early 20th century, folks like El Lissitzky, who were into using art to visualize new social spaces. But here, it feels less like a utopian vision and more like a fragmented, dreamlike space, full of motion.
