Looking for creating a landscape and a non-narrative sequence, this project became what is the development of a work done during the BA studies "The Classic City Gray". Being concerned on the social and political crisis of my country, I explored creating sophisticated images of people of the streets doing activities uncommon for wealthy people, like workers at a construction of a building. The piece is soft, relaxed and has no dramatic tenses but the actions of the silhouettes reveal a condition of many people that many others ignore. It could be seen also as a tribute to the working class.
