Meaning
With this image I wanted to represent the fact that time is changing, and so is Sheffield through the old city hall clocktower for the watch, the 1960s built Arts Tower, and the more modern water fountain balls. For both the sake of variety, and to connote a night-life feeling, I took the images of the Arts Tower and the balls at night to have cool colours, and to take advantage of reflections of lights since a blue lit night connotes the modern, with things like the changing street lights. The outlier is the watch which is much older, not under any kind of blue colouring through reflections or the night, as I wanted to represent that the traditional can keep things together. The identity of this image is all to do with time, how the cool colours are used to represent the modern and new, with the warmer colours representing the older, since warmer colours can be identified with things like candles and wood (things that were much more used in the past at least when compared to today), and the cool colours can be identified with modern architecture and neon lights.
Method of Display
This image would be displayed on a large canvas of 72 x 36 inches as I want a lot of its detail found in the arts tower's texture, the clocktower's structure and the reflections of the water fountain balls to be evident and as clear to see as possible in this image. This would cost from £250 to £280.
