The Bridges
A landmark art piece which shows the Railway and the Wearmouth bridge in my home city of Sunderland, in the North of England.
It shows the Wear bridge from an unusual perspective of looking up from underneath. I would often fish along the River Wear from this spot, so this viewpoint is a familiar one.
There is something very fascinating about these strong man-made structures contrasted against the natural elements, which I hope this work captures to some degree.
