Wool Cardigan on Kitchen Chair in Pyongyang

Pale autumn light fills the room, bouncing softly off walls painted a muted cream color. From directly above, a thick wool cardigan in deep charcoal rests across the curved back of a simple wooden kitchen chair. The chair sits on a worn wooden workbench, its grain visible beneath the fabric. The wool fibers catch the diffuse skylight, showing a soft, matte texture that contrasts with the smooth, slightly reflective varnish of the bench. Muted reflections stretch across the floor below, hinting at the quiet stillness of the afternoon. A small knot in the wood near the chair leg anchors the composition in a specific, lived-in space.
