Red Doors Revisited

A peripatetic working life has of late afforded the opportunity of returning to the location where I previously encountered those most aesthetic pairs of Gary Humesque red gloss doors (see this post) & of thus taking some photos, which, although offering but a very poor substitute to the actual experience of the real thing, illustrate something of the visual attraction of the doors, their physical nature & qualities of the paint surface, etc. The images are hereby presented in a form that is intended to equate in some way to the experience as lived, in time & space, of approaching & traversing the areas around & before the doors, observing the play of light over the gloss surfaces & always being returned to the insistent physical nature & aesthetic, painterly quality of these wonderful things.
