RAIN by Dave Robertson

an interpretation of life
on the streets of Cape Town,
captured from the interior of my car
during persistent rainy outbursts

a strong sense of rain-splattered windows
as a barrier
separating me / the protected insider /
from the outsiders
whose lives were in disruption.

this experience increased my awareness
of the divide between the life of
an insider
and
an outsider.

photographed entirely through the windows
of my car during the winter of 2008,
the images are not manipulated
apart from the obvious adjustments
of colour and contrast.
