News Time and Place: Multidimensional urban paintings
Posted by Joeff Davis @joeffly on Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 9:08 PM
This week's Time and Place photo was shot at 11th and Peachtree Street NE. For me one of the benefits to living in the city is that the mirrored buildings create living canvases that change dramatically throughout the day. I like this photo because it combines that element of the city with another of my favorites, the workers who dangle fearlessly from buildings while they complete their daily jobs. To me they are heroic. I also like the multidimensionality of this image, how the reflected building forms one world and the surface of the lines of steel form another dimension. The worker seemingly walking at the top of the reflected building while touching the sky forms yet another.
