Description

A triptych shows three different views of a playground that is closed. The left panel is in color and features a swing set with red-and-white barrier tape wrapped around the seats and frame. The backdrop includes a body of water, a distant shore, and a cloudy sky. A bench sits behind the swing set, further emphasizing the emptiness. The middle panel, in black and white, focuses on a young child sitting on a swing, also marked with black-and-white barrier tape. Only the child's back is visible, and the sky is overcast. The right panel, also in black and white, shows a child in a striped hat and patterned sweater on a swing set. This view is from above, looking down at the child, with the playground surface visible below. The barrier tape is draped around the swing in the three scenes, unifying the theme.
