Description

This is the front door of the Three Links residential elder care center in Northfield. Look at the mix of signals: the friendly, loving window art behind the sign explaining why people can't come in. To me, this captures the poignancy of the loss of contact, together with the sense of gratitude towards the caretakers who can come and go.
