ABSTRACTION, Swansea 2019

Notes on ABSTRACTION, Swansea 2019
I find it hard to walk anywhere without searching for such abstractions. I visit towns, landscapes, ruins or just walking down a residential street I seek such subjects. This image and its sister is actually something of a cheat. This is the recycling bin of a house my partner and I are renovating. The house itself, now all the walls have been stripped of their plaster, have also revealed interesting walls - of which will be shown here at a later date.
And of this number 79? It shows a peeled plastic number, a small bird, sunlight, shade, bubbles in the number, scratches and scars, highlights and shadows. It contains everything a good image should; substance. It also shows a recycling bin.
