The Labelled Land

 

All Images: West Leicester, May 2021

...Where geometry prevails (an underlining).

...Where the bowsers are aligned (to what ends?).

...Where the rampart abuts (vertical face adjoins inclined plane).

 

...Where travellers no longer alight ( the ghost-line remains).

...Where text and place intersect (location labelled)

...Where new meaning is applied (change of use)

...Where new edifices emerge (a conjuring of density)

...Where the skyline is re-engineered (the prospect/the overlook)

...Where occupancy expands into new cells (leveraging of space)

...Where a reversal might occur (what lies behind all this?)

...Where points of view are exchanged (transmit/receive)

...Where the fixings are revealed (the physicality of text)

...Where recession operates (against hospitality).

...Where perspective is gained (against the oblique).

...Where angles tighten (against the format).

This is the place.  

Is this the place?
