The last one (for the time being) of the series "Arts and the city". A fourfold exposure of many small details of graffiti works on the try to give an impression of that vivid, noisy, perhaps seemingly chaotical plentitude of directions, views, conflicts, hopes, and all the rest that happens in a city.
Thanks a lot for the reply, now I got you right, Ian!
Not much of a farewell to me too. Perhaps just because this series is not finished at all. It still keeps on growing - I think it'll continue as long as I can shoot.
So, you found it to be a farewell? Quite interesting to hear, since I never looked to it this way. Have to think about that.
I really can't remember where exactly it was, Ian. I only remember that it was a fourfold exposure and no glass. It might look this way, but it is due to overexposure of the parts that happened to be in the highlights and in the same place more or less of all four frames.
As about knowing people in ZH, well, some years ago it was much ncier than it is today. Too many financial wizards and slimy lizards there now.
I think it is a fine mess you have made Nick. I expected it to be more of a farewell than full walls, screwing it up and trashing it, but it is quite alive... That's the glass mural to the Zurich t.v. studio I see? I knew someone there.
Again, nothing to be sorry about, Mahassa. I am always glad for some sincere words instead of the usual tapping onto each other's shoulders that many too many find the main purpose of this site. (Perhaps because they don't get that tapping onto their shoulders anywhere else ;-))
I know what you mean. It is indeed busy, very very busy. It is an abstraction of the very busy city - things here and there, artefacts, traces of human activity, dirt, shapes, whatever. It is less an image to be "liked" directly. So the question to me is, would it still make the abstraction of "being busy up to dizzyness" if it were less busy? Perhaps it still would and it at the same time be also more "likeable". I'll have to try that, but already now I thank you very much for the nice and sincere comment! (Sincerity is always nice! :-))
