On a winter day in 2007 I observed these women who needed to cross the road with their little children. The traffic light, looming over them as a shadow in the frame, was designed to switch back fast in favor of cars. Since the women and children had to cross six lanes, they never quite made it in time, or they had to rush the kids mercilessly. I felt their stress, and to emphasize this sad situation in the image, I extended the crosswalk even further, adding even “More Danger.” The road has since been renovated and now has an island in the middle to offer rescue to anybody who can’t make it over in time…
