Sanitation Worker in Chicago
Mist rests on the brickwork of a West Loop alleyway, softening the harsh geometry of a towering industrial fire escape. A sanitation worker in a high-visibility vest pauses beside a rusted dumpster, his gloved hand resting on a pair of heavy-duty pruning shears used for clearing overgrown ivy from the building’s foundation. The dull gray light reflects off wet asphalt, highlighting the worn leather of his work boots. Behind him, a narrow window reveals the warm, amber glow of a bakery kitchen, where a wooden pastry brush rests on a flour-dusted counter, against the cold, damp exterior. The quiet intersection of urban maintenance and early morning commerce, framed by the textured, rain-slicked surfaces of the city’s infrastructure.
