My goal for the alphabet was to find shapes that resembled letters. For example, a crack in the cement could resemble an ‘A’ or the curves from a wrought iron fence could mimic the curves of a lowercase ‘E’.
I chose to take this approach to the alphabet because I thought it would help me look at my surroundings in a different way. Instead of just looking for letters on signs or billboards, I would try and look for random markings on a light pole or the shapes and patterns embedded in the steel plates on the floor.
This was definitely a good exercise and, when looked at as a complete alphabet, it definitely helps the viewer get a feeling of London.
