Gated City

Los Angeles—the city of opportunity, framed by restriction. Gated City captures the view from above the Hollywood sign, where the sprawling skyline is seen through the rigid grid of a chain- link fence. The contrast is stark: a place known for boundless ambition, yet here, visually confined, as if reminding us that access isn’t always guaranteed.

This image speaks to the duality of dreams—how they can feel so close, yet remain just out of reach. It challenges the viewer to consider what barriers exist in their own pursuit of success, and whether those walls are real or simply waiting to be climbed.
