Ultraviolet flourescent blacklight-lit and dark self-storage corridor plunged into midnight teal metal roll-up doors receding to an ink-black vanishing point. Blacklight reactive paint splattered all over the walls floor and ceiling, glowing neon trails painted on the surface with splatters and drippings like a jackson pollock painting. Ceiling fluorescents sputter; half the tubes are dead leaving jagged bars of sickly lime that flicker like heart-monitor blips across the ribbed roof. Magenta and cobalt light-painting streaks snake along the glossy concrete pooling in oily reflections before whipping upward in coiled ribbons that frame the figure. Low-slung fisheye view from the floor: a lone woman crouches in a random spot in the frame on the edges--could be the left, could be the right, could be the top, or could be the bottom. Unique framing, unique angle, rule of thirds photo. her torso is pitched forward the lens devouring her battered footwear first. She’s wearing thrashed early-2000s skate sneakers—oversized tongues fat oval laces frayed to fluff suede toe-caps pitted with curb rash midsoles filmed with grime and speckled neon paint one heel mottled by duct-tape repairs. The ceiling grows concentric glowing vine tendrils that look like something out of a horror film, dripping glowing goo. The shoes bleed iridescent colored rim-light along every scuff while dull magenta back-glow traces their cracked rubber edges. Above the wrecked kicks: star-print patchwork jeans sag over the sneakers denim shredded at the cuffs; a quilted tartan trench flares behind her like broken wings. Windblown hair gives her hair a weightless zero gravity quality. A denim jacket plastered in peeling cartoon patches slips off one shoulder to reveal a rib-knit crop top lit by a single cyan slash. Hair whips across her face one eye catching the only live fluorescent tube—a pinpoint of ghostly white in the surrounding dark. Everything warps inward: floor doors and ribbon-lights funnel toward her crouch turning the grim corridor into a grungy neon vortex around those wrecked dirt-slick sneakers. <lora:conceptual_photography_v4_19-000061:1>
