I noticed this tractor on the slipway by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution building, on the Promenade at Cromer. The tractors are used to manoeuvre fishing boats in and out of the water. I was drawn to this vehicle because it was covered with protective tarpaulins (even the seat). I liked the white sand covering the tyres. I looked like an installation. I have of course, dragged and stretched the image like plasticine to give the impression of movement. The background is sympathetic. This is a photograph of tables and chairs stacked outside a restaurant, covered in a weather protecting tarpaulin. The pavement in the bottom left hand corner was part of the photo. I used a similar photo in a picture entitled ‘White And Grey’. The grille of the tractor had regular air holes – I have altered them to be perverse and for effect. I applied a filter to soften the image.
