Back On The Golden Mile 3




All Images: Melton/Belgrave Road, North Leicester, December 2018


Here's the third (and concluding) instalment of my recent crop of images harvested on Leicester's Melton/Belgrave Road.  As with Posts 1 & 2, there's nothing here that relates directly to any specific artwork project.  I prefer to think of them rather as simply the most recent manifestations of my ongoing practice of documenting the juxtaposed meanings,  possible clues, and perpetual poetry, of the urban street.  In fact it probably is the kind of stuff that often informs the work sooner or later - if only on a more subconscious level. 

This final trawl concentrates mainly on signage and texts, but also concludes with a few  miscellaneous glimpses that felt just too delicious to ignore.  One of those is a chance moment of instantaneous drama - that just fell in the centre of the viewfinder for once.  The he last two seem to capture inconsequential details, covering spiritual and earthly ends of the behavioural spectrum - whilst sharing certain formal similarities.
