XV Seconds (after Scorsese)

A large-scale colour photograph by Sam Taylor-Johnson captures a fleeting, cinematic moment suspended in time, referencing the visual language of Martin Scorsese's iconic filmmaking. The work's title alludes to a precise, brief duration, inviting the viewer to contemplate what is implied beyond the frame. Flush mounted on aluminium, the c-print achieves a sleek, luminous surface that heightens the image's film-like intensity and presence.
