PARALLEL PLACES COLLECTION
Jeremiah Meyer
Description
"Back Seat" by Jeremiah Meyer presents a fragmented view of an empty car, where the wheel and window become focal points in the composition. The perspective is that of the viewer, placing us in the scene without ever introducing another character. This absence allows the viewer's imagination to take over, blending reality with personal reflection. Through his signature style, Meyer evokes a familiar feeling of solitude and introspection, inviting a deeper connection with the quiet moments that pass unnoticed.
