Waiting for the Splash

Collection

Nobody's Swimming

Description

Waiting for the Splash ! The pool lies flat and blue as a held breath, water smoothed into something almost solid, a surface pretending to be still while everything beneath it waits to move. Two chairs face forward, empty, angled toward an event that hasn't happened yet. This is the shape of a life lived in anticipation: the meeting before it starts, the decision before it's made, the diving board before the dive. We build our days around thresholds like this - poised, ready, endlessly composed - and mistake the composure for peace. The light here is generous and total, the kind that flattens shadow into geometry, that makes a garden look designed rather than grown. Nothing in the frame is wild. Even the plants seem arranged, even the color seems chosen. It is the modern instinct made visible to smooth the unpredictable into something that photographs well, to sit beside water without ever quite entering it. And yet the pool remains, patient, indifferent to whether anyone jumps. The splash it promises is not a failure to arrive, it is simply not yet. In this way the image holds a small, quiet truth about waiting itself: that it is not empty time, but full time, folded over on itself, glowing in the sun like something about to happen.
