Rings of Saturn Over Beauty Shelf in Aguascalientes

Rows of mousse cans and heat protectant bottles line a glass shelf, their metallic labels catching the cool glow of vanity mirrors. Soft daylight from the wet season falls through the windows, casting quiet shadows along the cream-colored walls of the nail studio. The late afternoon light creates precise highlights on the curved plastic surfaces. Beyond the glass display, a massive planet with distinct rings hangs low on the horizon, its scale dominating the sky like an enormous moon. The impossible sphere sits calmly above the tiled floor, its shadow stretching across the room. A reflection of the ringed planet glimmers in the polished chrome of a hairdryer handle.
