Description of the work: “Escalera o Precipicio”

"Escalera o Precipicio" by José María Lamo de Espinosa is a photographic work that plays on perspectives and contrasts to offer a captivating vision of modern architecture. Captured in black and white, the image reveals an architectural scene that could be seen at times as a dizzying ascent, at times as a descent into the unknown.

The bold, skyward framing guides the viewer’s eye through curved lines and geometric structures, creating a visual dynamic that evokes both elegance and enigma. Natural light streaming through the glass ceiling adds a dimension of clarity that contrasts with deep shadows, emphasizing the dichotomy between elevation and emptiness, between hope and apprehension.

This work is for those looking to decorate their space with a piece that not only beautifies, but also provokes reflection and admiration. It embodies the essence of contemporary urban design, captured with a technical mastery that transforms a simple space into a scene of almost metaphysical depth. "Escalera o Precipicio" is an invitation to explore the limits of perception, to question what is visible and what remains hidden in the recesses of our consciousness.
