Description
An open door to a stairwell in what could be a school or perhaps a hospital or some sort of office building strangely has a man with his back to the viewer hanging straight down from above. What is otherwise a completely normal situation has literally been turned upside down.
Inspired by a photograph I saw, it immediately brought to mind Jean Paul Sartre's play, "No Exit" and though the visual has no direct correlation to the play, other than the Exit sign, the starkness of everything and simillarity of the walls and door, lit by the neon stairwell light seemed like it's own kind of Hell in a way.
