The geometry changes at the ballpark. Curves of seating follow the field, the infield introduces another colour and the view opens beneath a broad sky. A dark coat near the front row gives the photograph a different kind of silhouette from the sporting clothes around it.
The visit begins outside, with people walking beside the brick frontage and stopping to speak. Inside, the photographs become slower. There is room to look along a row of seats, toward the field or at someone absorbed in a phone between moments of attention.
These scenes sit naturally beside the House's football photographs. Different sports create different rhythms of gathering, but clothes still move between the journey, the entrance and the seat. A coat worn in the city continues into the stadium without changing its role.
The archive records a visit and the people and spaces visible within it. Its interest is observational: how a sporting place sits inside everyday life, how scale changes from pavement to field, and how a day is remembered through a handful of images.
