Paris, late afternoon. The light here is diffused, softening the edges of a basketball court framed by bold geometric walls in red, yellow, and navy. Players move across the vibrant surface, their figures caught between the sharp contrast of the panels and the weathered concrete ceiling above. Ludwig Favre returns to this indoor space, where the gradient walls glow under overhead lighting, the colors bleeding into one another without blending. The railing curves around the court, adding a subtle tension to the composition, while the alleyway outside frames the scene with muted stone buildings and overcast skies.

A hand rests on the metal railing, its curve cutting against the sharp edges of the geometric panels.
