Description

This interior photograph captures a subterranean archive tunnel lined with massive banks of floor-to-ceiling metal filing cabinets on the left and an uneven, painted white rock wall on the right. The glossy floor reflects overhead pendant lights that recede into the perspective of the narrow corridor. Storage boxes are stacked high on top of the metal cabinets near the ceiling, creating an industrial, cavernous atmosphere. The composition emphasizes the vast scale and repetitive geometry of the archival storage system within the subterranean space. The lighting is bright and evenly distributed by utilitarian fixtures running down the length of the corridor.
