Park Scene (2023) Photographie par Zheka Khalétsky

A woman is sitting in the shadow of trees' abundant foliage. The woman is slouching over her phone, she seems estranged from the spectacular surroundings, which is emphasized by her white clothes contrasting with the dark cover of grass beneath. The strip of light separates the scene from the world beyond, while the ligt appears to be extention of the bright sky. The threes in the background are hiding in ever darkening shadow, but a high dry tree stands out, throwing the remnants of its saw-off branches right into the sky. Trees behind seem to be following up, immersing the pattern of their branches in the dazzling light. The bottom of the tree's trunk is painted in white, making it rhyme with the white woman's figure.
