Before the First Flash

A lobby already in motion.

A key changes hands. A book finds its trolley. Someone is still sewing the velvet rope. Eleven different moments meet in the lobby we imagine.

Before the First Flash. Eleven fictional creative characters: Kapten, Alfred, Selina, Tony, Rachel, Zara, Wrex, Miss Q, Tanya, Baby V and Miss Watson. — A photographic-style fictional portrait of the Hotel’s creative cast, not a photograph of existing hotel staff or premises.
