Tourists spend a lot of time trying to figure out where they are, and where they might want to go. I found this woman seated in a hallway of a shopping plaza, with her purchase in her lap and her map in her hands. I waited until she raised the map towards her face, which abstracted her and asks the viewer to wonder how she may be reacting to what she is learning. I frame her with abstracted people on either side. The woman at left wriggles a toe upwards in her sandal – she may be anxious to get going. The man at right, however, seems completely relaxed.
