Here is an example of some work that I produced in January 2010.
Old Railway 1 2010
This is a work based on some photographs that I developed in January 1994 during my art foundation year. I spent a lot of time down the then old railway in West Didsbury taking pictures and 'escaping'. I found the combination of neglect, what remained of the station and the trees to be fascinating. The station is now redeveloped into the new Tram network.
Photograph, Old Railway, January 1994
This one of the photos I took and developed in January 1994. It is not a clear picture, it is over exposed, mainly when it was enlarged when I developed it. I wanted to create an old fashioned look, to capture how the area would have been captured on camera in its heyday.
The theme of the old railway, trees, forgotten things, escape have continued since 2010 with further works based on my photographs and feelings from 1994.
