Architecture as abstract art.
Photograph. 1st December 2023.
A cropped photograph creating an image that is quite hard to interpret due to the lack of context or visual cues.
The railings help once you’ve realised what they are. It’s a photograph of the steps at Alexandra Palace railway station, London. Due to the cropping of the photograph the steps lose their significance as steps and only the parallel nature of the lines of the steps becomes significant, creating an abstract pattern.
