A still from artist Edin Velez’s 1983 video, “As Is”. A close-up shot of three women, all with purses slung over their shoulders, walking down an escalator or a flight of stairs. Only the woman closest to the camera is visible from the shoulders up; she is light-skinned, middle aged, and has cropped light blond hair that has been teased into a halo around her face. She wears large frame glasses and a brown dress. She looks off camera to the left, and is frowning slightly.
