Two concentric squares set in an ivory coloured plaster wall. The outer square has the colour and texture of raw concrete, and the inner square someone has painted a subtle pastel burgundy colour, pricking out three vertical cracks in a darker colour so that they look like vines, and at the bottom they have painted a very detailed very delicate rust-red and black spotted butterfly. It looks entirely incongruous with its surroundings, and makes me smile with its artistry and sense of hopefulness.

Colour photo of an old brick wall, in various shades of orange and terracotta and ochre and peach, in bright warm sunshine. There is a jagged-edged rectangle of shadow in the lower left hand corner, and then, going left to right, the clear shadow of a three-armed lantern-style streetlight, the shadow of a pole with a junction box halfway up and a drop-like appendage a bit higher up, and then finally on the right hand edge of the frame an actual dark black drainpipe with a slight kink in it. It takes a second to see which of the vertical objects is real and which are shadows, making the image feel a bit otherworldly.

Colour photo taken looking down a very narrow Venetian alleyway baking in the afternoon sun. The walls are of mottled terracotta coloured brick, and where the photographer is standing they are so close together that you could reach across them with a single armspan; the alley continues to narrow from this point until coming to an end in a closed dark green door, far enough away in the photo to be fuzzy and indistinct. The right hand wall is mainly plain brick and in soft shadow, but the left hand wall is a mishmash of white marble window frames, green shutters, drainpipes, patches of bright light and dark black shadows, and most noticeably and incongruously given how medieval the architecture feels, a small neon yellow sign warning of the presence of video surveillance cameras. The main focus of the image is a handwritten sign strung across the width of the alleyway, which in wonky black capital letters reads "no way" and underneath in Italian "strada chiusa", which means "cul de sac" and is obviously what they meant to say but mistranslated. The whole image feels utterly deserted, as if there were people there once but no longer.
