Post Office Tower (Photo joiner / montage) - Limited Edition of 1 Print

The Post Office Tower in London is a little unusual, built in the late 60's and for 15 years was the tallest building in London, it was used to house all sorts of transmission and radio satellites and relays, although I'm not sure how much of that is used today. The top couple of floors are actually a rotating restaurant, which, so the story goes, afforded excellent and constantly changing views over London as it slowly rotated. The restaurant shut down in 1980 but is still used occasionally for special functions. Shooting this joiner took quite a bit of scouting to get an angle where I could actually see a fair bit of the tower and not just the top of it poking out over the top of the buildings which have grown up around it. In fact I almost got run over by a motorcycle courier who was very put out that I was stood in the middle of a road camera in hand..still, every great artist has suffered for their art in one way or another. **Special Note - Only the original will receive the artists signature as proof of authenticity** What is a 'joiner'? A joiner is a series of digital photos taken of a subject (landscape, person or item) which are digitally 'treated' and then arranged using computer software to create a large single digital photo. When printed the 'joiner' tends to be very large by virtue of it being made up of multiple full size photos (anything from 20-70 individual photos). Printing (prices available upon request): The buyer is able choose from the following printing materials: Canvas, Fabric and PolyCril. - Canvas - Artex Canvas is a high-end light weight, extremely strong and flexible canvas substrate. The material is easy and beautiful to print on using solvent, eco-solvent, UV, Latex or screen printing. - PolyCril - A canvas-ish texture which gives a soft, non-reflective quality for premium feel, it's made from non-PVC materials which means it is 100% recyclable and an ideal environmentally friendly solution. - Fabric - a range of different polyester fabrics printed with dye sublimated inks, from display fabrics to fine voile. Dye sublimation printing embeds the ink into the fibres of the weave becoming part of the material. This process allows the fabric to remain soft and flexible. Mounting options (prices available upon request): FabriFrame - is a revolutionary fabric tension system which is so versatile the creative possibilities are huge. It can be mounted onto walls, doors or ceilings with a fabric graphic applied to the face, or be a free standing unit or partition wall. The system is created from a lightweight aluminium frame which can be fitted on-site either by my installation team or, depending on size, sent as a flat pack unit for self assembly. The frames comes in a variety of profile depths ranging from 20mm to 100mm, with the ability to be cut and finished to create almost any shape you can imagine. FabriGrab - An incredible fabric tension system which effectively replaces the need for full wall coverings in vinyl or wallpaper, eliminating any seams or damage to the wall behind. The slim extrusion creates a narrow gap between the wall and fabric to create a smooth fabric finish. The super slimline FabriGrab™ frame attaches neatly to the wall, around windows, doors, sockets and switches. Influences: We each are influenced by the world and people around us, and as such the decisions and choices we make can be steered dependent on how strong the given influence is. When working on and compiling a joiner I generally listen to music, and as such I believe the music can have a bearing on the finished article. To this end to fully enjoy and enter into the same state of mind as that when the joiner was created I recommend listening to the the following track: Track: The Flood. Artist: Take That
