This is the stairwell/emergency exit, in a block of flats. Helgate Court on Westwick St. is a Retirement Housing complex. At the bottom of the stairs is a door that leads out to St. Margaret’s Alley which runs down the side of the building. I have replaced that with one of the corridors that runs the length of the complex. Simon was photographed walking away in another photo I had taken, so I put him in this passageway. I distorted the image to give it movement. I also ‘swerved’ the steps leading down from the viewer. The boxes are balconies that I looked up at, on some recently built luxury apartments on Printworks Drive, overlooking the river and the Law Courts. I of course isolated them and cut through the safety rails. I hoped to achieve a flowing picture that moves out through the corridor and beyond.
