Gus Powell, Photographer, New York

Description

This photograph by Gus Powell captures a staged scene inside a grand, weathered hall with high arched windows and distressed architectural columns. Several individuals wearing athletic uniforms stand on elevated platforms, holding long wooden poles. In the center, a person in a patterned blue outfit holds up a wooden paddle with one arm raised. The reflective dark floor mirrors the subjects and the ambient lighting from fixtures mounted on the walls. Spectators are seated on bleachers along the sides of the large interior space.
