Glimpses: Interdependence, Space (Proxemics), High Context

A polite and harnessed yellow Labrador uncertainly leads a woman in dark sunglasses into the metro car. I watch from my corner as hands, young and old, reach out reflexively to guide the woman into a seat, gently holding her hands, elbows, shoulders.

Four young teen skaters board the metro car, grinning in anticipation of future cityscape conquests. They greet a latecomer with a pointed glance at his spotless new shoes, eyebrows raised over glittering eyes. The latecomer responds with a proud nod, shifting his right shoe so that the coveted brand is visible: VANS.
