Standard Hollywood

$6,500.00

This aerial photograph of the Standard Hollywood Hotel pool was inspired by the surreal stillness that enveloped Los Angeles during the height of the COVID lockdown. The absence of people in such an iconic social space became a visual metaphor for the collective pause the city experienced.

Through this work, I hope viewers feel a mix of awe and introspection—a recognition of both beauty and emptiness. The silent geometry of the pool, the turquoise water, and the stark contrast of the vacant navy blue deck invite reflection on isolation, resilience, and the altered rhythm of urban life.

I chose aerial photography as the medium to capture the sense of detachment and quiet omniscience that defined the moment. Seen from above, the Standard’s pool transforms into a composition of color and form, blending architectural minimalism with emotional weight.
