I See a Red Door

A black door in Bristol, UK, painted with pink text reading “I see a red door and I want it painted black,” set between white-painted brick with turquoise graffiti and pale brickwork.

A Bristol doorway turns a familiar lyric into street-text: part joke, part threshold, part urban colour study.
