Temporary WALLS - Balls Pond road


Temporary WALLS - Shoreditch

covering Commershal Road- east london

I love the contrast in the city between these two opposing Facades,

one is temporary and cheap used to cover the old in preparation for the new.

The other is the old striped back only to the thickness of a brick panstacingly preserved to

cover the new with the desiriblity of the past.

i am so fascinated by all the temporary walls that you can find in London and how the differ from area to area.

Venice Public Pattern

The colours and textures of Venice as so different to east London

PUBLIC PATTERN

Over the last few years i have been collecting images of
Public Pattern & Public Graphic, from pavements to shop counters,
chemist mosaics to street signs.
I've decided that i should put them all together on one sight
so here we go


The majority of my picture are from walks around different
areas of London in which i have travelled.

Door Mat, Discount Fish Store – East London

It might be just because i have been looking at to many patterns.

but to me i like how the door mat is a interpretation of the same sort of foe stone/ granite

pattern that is used a lot for Bus laminates, but its qualities differ as a result of being made up from a different material

Walk around White chapel

Disused head stone showroom- faux pebbles(ceramic mosaics)Brick lane

I love the use of these modern mosaics that cover the interior wall surfaces

of the space it reminds me of the colours in the Film Mauvais Sang
