EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling construction work taking place on the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route in Scotland. The image, taken on August 1,2017, by Russell Cheyne for Reuters, showcases a closed-off town road undergoing an extensive exterior transformation. Against the backdrop of an overcast sky, this urban city's renovation is in full swing. The photographer's creative use of composition highlights the solitary nature of the scene. With no people present, attention is drawn to the vibrant red color of a pistol-shaped sign notice that stands out amidst the construction site. This architectural marvel serves as a communication route and symbolizes progress and development within this community. The aim of this photograph seems to be capturing both the physicality and symbolism behind such large-scale construction projects. It invites viewers to contemplate how infrastructure improvements can shape our urban landscapes and enhance connectivity between towns and cities. With ample copy space surrounding it, this print allows for various interpretations while leaving room for personal reflection on themes like growth, change, and collective action towards building better communities. Whether displayed in homes or public spaces alike, Russell Cheyne's powerful image offers a thought-provoking glimpse into ongoing efforts to improve our surroundings through careful planning and diligent workmanship.
