"Into the Light" from the Red Line series
Mike Eubanks (USA)
Artist Statement
My Red Line Series is a photographic exploration of boundaries—those that are drawn, ignored, enforced, or broken. A red line refers to the idea of a “line in the sand,” a threshold that signals consequence, warning, or moral reckoning.
Throughout this Series, the color red functions as a visual anchor and a conceptual motif, appearing repeatedly as a symbol of tension, urgency, danger, and resistance. Into the Light, shows a confident woman strutting through the Oculus in New York City while following a shaft of light. The image asks viewers to consider where lines are drawn in personal, social, and political contexts, and who has the authority to draw them.
By emphasizing red as a recurring presence, the Series invites reflection on the cost of crossing boundaries, the consequences of silence, and the fragile space between restraint and transgression.
