In low-light, there’s a gritty, almost monochrome basketball court enclosed within brick walls. Sweaty players, faces covered with DIY style masquerade masks – odd, fun, and eerie all at once, aggressively dodge and hoop. Depth is created with perspective – one end of the court disappearing into the shadows, enhancing the ominous atmosphere. Display contrast with bright, garish graffiti on the walls, stark against the dusky indoor court. Some spectators sit off-balance, the camera capturing their reactions from a low angle, adding intensity. Focus on a lamellibranch shell, oddly out of place on the court, being kicked accidentally by a charging player, the shell skitters across the floor, providing movement and breaking the tension momentarily. Dial in on both – the frenzied game and the shell’s journey, capturing the strange mix of fear and joy in this unusual gathering.
