Charly Rusconi, The Shadows of Youth (Mobile 2021)

On that winter day, my 10 year old nephew begged me to come and watch him drop in on his new scooter at the local skatepark. Although I was not too keen at first as the wind was really strong and cold I remembered what it was like to be 10. This picture sums up our young selves growing up too quick. Sitting there watching the sun goes down I realised that we don’t stop going to the skatepark because we grow old. We grow old because we stop going to the skatepark. The Shadows of Youth.
