Kingsland Construction 3
Oil on Canvas, 60 x 400 cm, 2003/4
Image 2 of 12: series I next I previous

This series was based on a rapidly changing area of London: buildings were being demolished at lightning speed, new permanent structures equally swiftly constructed and, in the interim, once familiar streets were populated by a multitude of temporary passage ways and tunnels made of hoardings and scaffolding - drastically altering an individual's conception of space in that area. It is this moment of sudden awareness, and of the consequent transformation from an apparently mundane to a dynamic space, that is explored in these images.
