This image exemplifies some of the issues I am encountering. This is the side abutment of a bridge under a motorway. The embankment rises above, its construction throws up these odd spaces which are not useful but a necessary byproduct. They've been fenced off to stop access to the carraigeway above. The space is undecided and an ideal example for me to create some response in minature.The trouble is the approach. The construct presents various challenges to simulate; vegetation, the fence, though these can be overcome.It remains a matter of how to see it. As a forensic teutonic excercise? A neo gothic Lynchian idyll with low lighting,mist and limited artificial illumination? Or what? what is the English suburban slightly menacing approach and how does it translate in to producing an image which has an aesthetic which is appealing.
All my art school training wants to make it something luverly.
