In an old triplex apartment, a young man is hastily zipping up a variety of colorful jackets – chaquetas – hanging on the wall. The room is dimly lit by a single, dusty bulb dangling from the ceiling, casting long shadows. The shot is framed from the perspective of a mirror placed in the corner, revealing a cramped, narrow room – a bit jam-packed, filled with all kinds of trinkets and memorabilia. There’s an unbalanced, cluttered feel to the shot, creating an atmosphere of organized chaos. The perspective places the focus on the man in the foreground. The camera angle is a high wide shot, capturing all the chaos in one frame, with very minimal movement. A sense of depth is provided by piles of books and records stacked high against the walls, reaching almost to the ceiling. Space is cramped, and the subject is placed right in the middle of it, a vibrant figure against the chaotic backdrop.
