Swirling (Swans)

Swirling (Swans)

Walking along the seafront at Yarmouth on the North Coast Path, there are some cafes that have closed for the end of the season. One of them was the Beach Terrace Tea Rooms. Like most of them, the business’s sell buckets and spades etc. I noticed by the Tea Rooms bins a discarded display frame looking sculptural. Made of thin white metal hoops and horizontal rods, it was a tiered frame for which (I thought) was designed to stack beachballs, one on top of another, about 120cm tall. I wish I could show you the original photograph….but hope you get the idea, badly explained! I isolated the background and looked for something incongruous to place it against. I immediately came across the photo I took of some swans by the Rushcutters Pub. I cropped the image and put the frame on top and started distorting and squashing it (the frame). I duplicated the said frame and distorted that too. I reduced the opacity and applied a couple of filters to the swan picture. The result was quite startling ; I had no preconceived plan and suprised myself. Its in the Figurative category because I couldn’t think where else to place it.
