EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Athit Perawongmetha, we are transported to a bustling subway station in Bangkok, Thailand. The image showcases the omnipresent surveillance camera (CCTV) that silently watches over the daily comings and goings of passengers. Its unrecognizable form casts an intriguing shadow against the interior walls of the underground train station. The artist's creative use of lighting and reflection adds depth to the composition, creating a visually striking scene. Real people can be seen going about their day, their silhouettes blending into a group that is slightly out of focus, adding to the sense of movement and anonymity within this busy transport hub. The photograph beautifully captures both the architectural elements and human presence in this underground station. The ceiling stretches above like an expansive canvas while escalators carry passengers up and down with rhythmic precision. Through clever manipulation of depth-of-field techniques, Perawongmetha draws our attention towards this solitary surveillance camera amidst a sea of commuters. It serves as a reminder that even in public spaces, our actions may be discreetly monitored. This thought-provoking image invites us to reflect on issues surrounding privacy and security in today's modern society while showcasing Perawongmetha's keen eye for capturing everyday moments with artistic flair.
