This is a black and white image featuring a surreal depiction of a partially fragmented staircase in a dark space. At the top of the staircase, there is an ornamental lamp or flame, which is upright and intact. The staircase below, however, breaks off and transforms into individual floating steps that curve downwards and don’t connect to the ground. Below the floating staircase, mirrored on the ground, is a darker reflection that appears to be shattering upon impact, with sharp, angular fragments radiating outward from the base of the reflection. The background provides no additional context, being uniformly dark and emphasizing the steps and their reflection. The image has a mysterious, dream-like quality, invoking a sense of stillness and disruption.

The image shows a black and white photograph of an abstract sculptural object. The object appears to be made up of irregularly shaped and angled stone or ceramic pieces stacked on top of each other, creating a staircase-like structure. A small flame or light source is visible at the top of the structure, adding an ethereal and dramatic quality to the image. The overall composition is striking and visually compelling, playing with light, shadow, and the sculptural form.
