Kurt Stallaert, Photographer, Sydney

Description

This cinematic photographic work by Kurt Stallaert captures a dramatic moment inside a dimly lit movie theater auditorium. In the foreground, an elderly woman sits with a wide-eyed, shocked expression, her mouth agape in fear or surprise, wearing a pale green top with a white tied scarf around her neck. Her arms wrap around two children seated beside her, whose eyes are covered by her hands. In the rows behind them, two men wearing hats watch with amused or excited expressions under a lens flare from the projector above. The rows of vintage theater seats create a repeating geometric pattern stretching backward into the shadows.
