About this work

This looks like a city at night inside a fake photo frame. The tallest building glows bright yellow at the top. Around it, smaller lights dot the skyline. The frame has shiny bits and the words "TILSON" and "clip-o-matic" on the sides. The artist stuck the print on a dark background with extra layers. It’s not a real photo—it’s made to look like one.
