NARRATIVE MURMURS AND ARCHITECTURAL GLANCES NESTLE WITHIN A FAÇADE OF CLASSICAL MAP MAKING
created in the spring of 2012, before its flag waving summer, remembering knightsbridge is a commemorative piece that honours the history and landscape of london.
we wandered through Knightsbridge with a couple of cameras and a bag of casting materials. We like to get into a landscape and record it: its images, its sounds, its natural textures and the life it plays canvas to. These elements became building blocks back in the studio where they are reinterpreted as casts, etchings and textural marks.
WHAT READS AS A NETWORK OF AVENUES AND SQUARES IS A LAYERED CONSTRUCTION OF STREETSCAPES AND ELEVATIONS, WOVEN WITH NATURE, SKETCHING AND A PEEK AT THE CHARACTERS WHO INHABIT.
