The beauty of this marketplace image is its simplicity. The shopper faces away from the camera, becoming an abstraction. Because we can’t see her face, our attention shifts to the antsy child, who seems to wish he were elsewhere at this moment. I built the image around its coloration – the whitewashed walls and gray floor and stoop echo the gray and white clothing of the shopper. The red counter inside the store repeats the red crate and red advertisements on the building wall.
