Scott Burrows : Unsupervised
Perched alone on an empty shoreline, the closed lifeguard tower in Unsupervised stands as a quiet monument to absence. Once a sentinel of safety and vigilance, it now faces the sea in silence, unmanned and inert. The photograph evokes a sense of suspended purpose—its form still authoritative, yet rendered powerless by the lack of human presence. The vastness of the beach and the subtle tension in the vacant watchtower speak to themes of solitude, vulnerability, and the fragile structures we build to guard against nature’s indifference. It is a study in waiting, in the quiet moments between duty and abandonment.
