Continuing on from my previous work on Thamesmead, I wanted to further think about how we treat urban architecture and in particular, the social and political discussion of concrete as a building material. The tower blocks of Thamesmead are monuments to these tensions. In these prints, I used handmade concrete canvas and grey/black tones to blur the boundaries between architecture, atmosphere, and people. The prints work as a series or standalone, and I hope that they evoke questions about our relationship to materials and their use in social housing and urban environments.
