Peter Benson APRS - Statement of Intent
NIGHT
‘I often think that the night is more alive and more richly coloured than the day’ - Vincent Van Gogh
Wandering through a city in the daylight hours there is always a certain energy, but frequently it is a commonplace and impersonal experience.
Conversely, exploring the city at night can be mesmerzing. The same, often noisy, places you wandered through in the morning, change significantly under the veil of night time.
When the night has come, thousands of glittering lights transform places into enchanting, colourful and completely magical sights. Everything looks so beautiful, especially in the reflection of the water.
In producing this panel I hope to convey the evocative beauty and sense of tranquillity and calm that I experience and observe in cities at night.
