AW-Archives: no.1 The Staircase

no. 01 THE STAIRCASE

Stairs offer up a physical space to linger in a state of suspension. We can be in limbo, between levels.  Whether embedded or objectified in a larger plan, staircases provide relief and discretion, or can catalyze our exposure and interaction with something or someone else. And while upon entering the threshold of a staircase, the end point often overshadows the vantage point, sometimes we can suspend the pragmatic mental tasks ahead and simply focus on the mechanical task of moving ahead.
