After Charles Sheeler

This is the stairway in the villa we rented in Playa del Carmen, which goes upstairs from the living room. I photographed it during the day, but it became far more interesting at night. A bit more ominous perhaps. I photograph by responding to what I see, and then think about it later. When I looked at this photo at home, it reminded me of the paintings and photographs of the artist and photographer Charles Sheeler, whose work I really admire.
