A gelatin silver print in which Rong Rong isolates a pair of bare feet at a room's threshold, using intimate framing to suggest memory, presence, and absence.
Seen from floor level, soft-focus foreground and bright backlight turn knees and crossed feet into a poised, almost dancerlike silhouette framed by patterned fabrics, creating a quietly voyeuristic hush.
Part of the Tsumari Story series, this small-scale black-and-white photograph ties personal domestic detail to broader questions of time and memory, showing how intimate documentary images renew photographic storytelling.
