Dan Kitchener. The Dark. Edition Size: 40. 16 x 12.5 Inches Giclee on 330gsm 100% Archival Cotton Paper. $45. My inspiration for this image primarily comes from my fascination with light, and the effect of light in a scene. I love the way that even in darkness, areas are picked out by light and reflections, creating shapes and form without having to show the actual detail of the object. These dark, urban, tube and railway tunnels are images that I see on a daily basis commuting in and out of London. They have transformed over the years of seeing them into strange and abstract worlds, full of strange machinery, odd shapes and cables and tracks. I love the way the abstract geometry and bizarre mechanics create such an intricate and intense visual experience. Punctuated by vivid, bright red lights, almost like eyes shining in the darkness as we approach. These shadowy dark worlds seem to have all sorts of possibilities, they fuel my imagination as to what may be lurking within. - Dan. Dan will be personally embellishing red lights and some of the tracks in each of this limited edition giclée.
