"Stairway": vlog digital urban black and white photography. High vibration art by Mokusho Abigaëlle Richard


Today's creation, I wished to share with you in this vlog and blog post, is one of digital urban black and white photography, which is high vibration art. I shot this photo in 2015, in one of the backyards of my neighborhood in Montreal, and it is entitled "Stairway".


It is a shot of the typical spiral staircases of Montreal homes. This flight of stairs is set on a background of sky and clouds, which gives the impression that it is flying in the air.


I like the effect of movement created by the spiral shape of the staircase, as if it was dancing in mid-air, and I felt that rendering this shot in black and white would create an interesting contrast between the dark color of the spiral against the soft light tones of the clouds.


These typical Montreal metal staircases are not only found in the backyards as emergency exists, but they are often found as well in the front of our multiplex buildings and you can find here some examples of this unique type of architectural element and its history.


Our spiral staircases are often personalized, with colorful paint, or decorated with plants and grapevine. Like our dressed bodies, each of them become a way for the resident to express his or her creativity and unique style. In the case of this photo, we see some wild grapevine branches wrapped around the metal of the stairs. The absence of leaves reminds us that this is a cold and rough winter day.

In other blog posts and vlogs related to my photography, I have often referred to the fact that I associate iconographically the clouds to the symbol of the busy mind in which thoughts pass like clouds. Again, here in this shot, the clouds are many and busy. However, in the midst of this almost chaotic action, this elliptical double strand of metal DNA, rises from the ground to reach for the sky! Unaffected by the busy thoughts, it just pushes up in its dancing movement towards Source!



As individuals, we incarnate in this lifetime the unique make up of our DNA and, like this staircase, we are grounded on Terra (our planet Earth), with our bodies that are these precious beautiful vessels that we should honor, since they are our opportunity to experience this unique life on Terra. However, like our DNA that has been tempered with, we are capable of much more, we can reach for the stars, and remember that we are these unique fractals of Source that are both connected to Earth and sky, sacred feminine and sacred masculine, Terra and Source.


These DNA shaped dancing stairs that pass through the passing clouds of the busy chaotic mind, represent for me symbolically our unique inner journey of reconnection to the complexity of our souls, but also to the richness of our Terran genetics which is definitely not only Terran in origin! And thus, we can honor both bodies and souls, in our elliptical dance of life and joy!
