Step Back

Step Back Step Back examines how people occupy the Washington, D.C. Metro system, a civic transit space shaped by routine, movement, and architectural order. Across stations, platforms, escalators, and metro cars, the photographs attend to intervals of waiting, riding, passing, and transition, as movement gathers, disperses, or briefly pauses. Through posture, spacing, orientation, and fleeting moments of awareness, the photographs describe how individuals navigate and temporarily share the same transit environment.
