Home is a Memory
1963

A crumpled piece of paper with a printed image of a human eye lies on an asphalt road in the foreground. In the background, a residential area with lush trees and a house is visible, with a car parked in front of the house. The scene is captured in black and white, creating a stark contrast between the paper and the dark road.
