Niku Kashef

Niku Kashef
Imogene Cunningham, "Unmade Bed" 
1957, gelatin silver print

I selected this image because it speaks to me about a pause, the moment between one thing to another and the spaces we leave behind. It is about what is not seen, the intimacy of one's most personal space (their bed) and the woman who took the pins out of her hair to let it flow freely on her shoulders before -- some new moment. 

The wrinkled sheets, the natural light, it is an all too familiar respite.
