Kym McDowell, Idyllic | Industrial (URBAN 2026)

How does time change our perception of what should be protected and what should be removed? This image explores the juxtaposition of industrial 'relics' from different eras to question and understand how time transforms our perceptions of these structures. Romanticised relics of a bygone era on the waterways are contrasted against the modern and dirty 'blight' on the landscape.
