Drying laundry Istanbul Turkey | Wall Art
The photo print captures the essence of Istanbul, Turkey, depicting old, rundown homes that tower above the viewer. Shot in black and white, the image portrays the texture of the home’s exterior, covered in years of grime and neglect. In the houses’ backyard, laundry hangs from ropes strung between the buildings, giving a glimpse into the inhabitants’ daily lives. The multiple floors of the homes are visible, each with its unique architecture and style, while the ground cover is made up of rocks and debris. The scene is intimate and distant, drawing the viewer in a while providing a sense of detachment. The photo shows the lifestyle and living conditions of those who call this place home.
