  • The Gresham Palota is a recently restored Art-Deco masterpiece. It was originally built and owned by the Gresham Insurance Company in London and was concieved as an arcade for shops with luxury apartments above. It was heavily bombed during WWII but in recent years has been bought and restored by The Four Seasons Hotel chain. They have tried to remain true to the original Art-Deco features however, there are some modern touches like this beautiful chandelier which is comprised of several pieces of twisted, hand-blown glass. It looks like a giant ball of flames floating over the recption desk. Stunning.

  • Birmingham skyline reflected in the windows of another building

  • Window in Liverpool which revolves giving a 3D effect. The most daring piece of public art ever commissioned in the UK, Turning the Place Over is artist Richard Wilson’s most radical intervention into architecture to date, turning a building in Liverpool’s city centre literally inside out. One of Wilson’s very rare temporary works, Turning the Place Over colonises Cross Keys House, Moorfields. It is on a light sensor and will run during daylight hours.

Richard Wilson is one of Britain’s most renowned sculptors. He is internationally celebrated for his interventions in architectural space that draw heavily for their inspiration from the worlds of engineering and construction. Turning the Place Over consists of an 8 metres diameter ovoid cut from the façade of a building in Liverpool city centre and made to oscillate in three dimensions. The revolving façade rests on a specially designed giant rotator, usually used in the shipping and nuclear industries, and acts as a huge opening and closing ‘window’, offering recurrent glimpses of the interior during its constant cycle during daylight hours. The construction programme started in February 2007 and involves the careful deconstruction of the façade across three floors of the building, which is then reconstructed and fixed to the enormous pivot installed at the heart of the building. This astonishing feat of engineering stuns audiences on many levels. Disturbing and disorientating from a distance, from close-up passers-by have a thrilling experience as the building rotates above them.

  • Perhaps it begins with a lone drop of rain / underneath the poorwill’s / fledgling weak wings. Perhaps it begins with a whispering breeze / leaving the earth / ever lost in the trees. Perhaps it begins and perhaps it does not / useful it is and forgiving it is not / no one knows but the bird in the hand / slowly, so slowly, extinguished by man.

I can’t see nobody…no, I can’t see nobody. / My eyes can only look at you…you. I used to have a brain; I used to think of many things. / I watched the falling rain and listened to the sweet birds sing. / Don’t ask me why, little girl. I love you and that’s all I can say. / You’re ev’ry ,ev’ry breath I take.You are my nights; my night and day. I can’t see nobody…no, I can’t see nobody. / My eyes can only look at you…you. Every single word you hear…is coming from this heart of mine. / I never felt like this before…a love like yours so young and fine. / And now as I try to forget you…it doesn’t work out any way. / I loved you such a long time ago…but in my eyes you’ll always be. / Every single word you hear…is coming from this heart of mine. / I loved you such a long time ago…don’t know why… / And I don’t know why…baby… I can’t see nobody…no, I can’t see nobody. / My eyes can only look at you…you. I can’t see nobody…no, I can’t see nobody. / My eyes can only look at you…you. [Creative Effects: Contrast/Brightness, Shadow adjustments, Omni Spotlight with Photoshop] Tweed Heads, February 2009.
