Looking twice

I took this photograph in the public square outside the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris over the summer with my disposable camera. The centre houses among other things a collection of contemporary art. Just outside, an apartment block overlooking the square houses ordinary Parisian's. Their building is transformed into a public expression of something hidden, waiting to be revealed. As I looked at this I began to see the urban environment around me with new eyes...

Sometimes,
if you look at something twice,
it changes.

  1. Great photo Phil - the face looks like it is coming out towards you .... we need to get the artist down to North London and do some work in the Stamford Hill Area!
