Shades of red and orange tones evoke the sunrise over the city. The orange gradient was made with an aerosol spray on a surface painted with acrylic paint. The minimal geometric structure is a visual reference to the architecture of San Francisco. The graphic zone made in Indian ink evokes the graphic complexity of the city and its inhabitants. Piccinelli contemplates the sun rising over San Francisco in the silence of dawn; it's a moment outside of time...a few minutes before the city wakes up."See; like a city on fire

Now sets the red sundome"

Vachel Lindsay"At the end of our streets are spars;

At the end of our streets is the setting sun;

At the end of our streets the stars.

Never the morning winds

Are fresh from the blinking sea

Flowing swiftly from our ocean;

until the dunes of fog crumble and flee.""The City by the Sea - San Francisco" by George Sterling
