DescriptionFour color photographs combined in a square. Each image portrays, in sequence, images of a house exploding. The first photograph illustrates the house intact, with harsh lighting illuminating its facade. A long dark shadow is casted on the ground behind the house. The second photograph illustrates the beginning of the explosion, with the front of the house obscured by smoke. The third and fourth photographs become blurred by the impact of the explosion.
