About this artwork
Archival Gicleé print on Hahnemühle German Etching paper. At 310g.s.m. this heavyweight etching board is silky smooth with a fine surface texture.
Shot on a wet and blustery day; tourists, under their umbrellas, scamper through busy Venice. Captured with maximum depth of field, subtle textures and deep blacks appear through the movements of the people and camera combined. Set against the recognisable Venetian architecture creating a ghostly dialogue… between the old and the new.
‘Symphony of the City’ seeks to upend the photographic cityscape by depicting a merging of portraiture and abstraction, of documentary and the fantastical. Lee’s city is one of sound, traffic, changing weather and a frenzy of human activity. Each on their own path of intention, people rush in every possible direction while he aims to create an image which moves with them.
