Looming Luminosity - Limited Edition 1 of 200 Photograph

This first artistic print really leads the Urban Fire series, as it is made up of different areas of the City Hall building in London. I really wanted to completely transform this already 'alien' like piece of architecture into something completely unrecognisable. The original photograph upon which this final print was taken on a cloudy day, and I loved the contrast of the clouds against the buildings in London. I felt that this combination really needed to be presented in a new and provocative way, in order to really inject a feeling of fire engulfing the once calm skies. The final abstract spherical object that created can be interpreted in many different ways due to its abstract shape. However, as the City Hall building metaphorically represents the heart of London, the print's title alludes to London's heart being at the epicentre of the fiery city. I feel that Looming Luminosity represents once again unknown and unseen forces. The effect of the sunlight and the shadows cast on these two large towers in London makes me think of an apocalyptic scene, with the light 'looming’ overhead, and growing ever closer to civilisation. You can see that the tones that are cast on the right hand side of this structure provide a magnificent and beautiful contrast of fiery colours and patterns. The spreading light completely dominates the two structures and thwarts their strength in size, owing to the way it scorches the buildings and the sky with such power and radiance. The buildings are bathing in the power of this looming luminosity.
