The Smart Staircase

Christchurch. October 2009. Ajr

Another in my photographic study of staircases. This one? The stairs leading to Jonathan Smart Gallery in High Street. White, pristine and filled with promise and possibilities. I had the urge to take to them with cans of multi-coloured spray paint. I stood there for sometime imagining the pale stair covers converted into a zebra stripe of hot, wild shades...... and even better, imagining Jonathan's face when he unlocked the bottom door and saw my handiwork.
