I am flying the route as it is documented ......

Old Street to Commercial Road
Urban Exploration 4

photos taken of the White Collar Factory
corner of Old street roundabout
​now heading down City road
I'll probably be cutting across
​heading towards commercial soon
but I'll let you know what I'm doing
 
I can see the Shard now 
I think I am still in the Borough of Islington
It must change soon
Its freezing cold
my fingers are frozen as I take the photos
not sure how they are going to turn out

I ended up coming down further on City road
I'm turning left onto Worship street which is quite appropriate
my new studio is an old Synagog so there is a link

on one side of City road its the Borough of Islington
on this side - Worship Street - its the Borough of Finsbury

Hey Ash
I was just thinking 
I was talking to Andrew this morning 
He said
I don't get lost
its not #gettinglost
its not wandering 
as I walk with purpose
I said in return
I get lost in my head
while I'm out walking with purpose

I get lost in the moment
of taking the photos
looking and looking and looking 
I don't know about the wandering bit
throws up interesting things
different people see different things

cycle on Paul Street
I took a photo of a double cycle 
on the corner of Paul Street
where Paul runs into Wilson

I was taking photos of all round this area in 2014
I was doing the other art fair at the old Truman brewery 
it all looks so different 
the buildings that were being built then have been built
I do remember little bits here & there 
even the road markings have aged or there's new ones
I guess 3 or 4 years on
you look at things differently 

#doubleyellows on the corner of Clifton Street #40
Its a dead end for cars
pedestrians can walk through
I saw an amazing building/structure on the outside 
I am going to head towards that
mostly all glass - I'll see what that's all about

going past the army reserves centre on Clifton
I was in the Army Reserves in Australia for 7 years 
as a truck driver

in the distance I recognise a building which is part of Broadgate
the back of Liverpool Street
I am going to head there
​one of my favourite public sculptures is there
light boxes by David Batchelor

stopped to take a photos on route

David Batchelor's sculpture in Broadgate
its the sun street entrance/exit
I love it

this building beside it 
is one of my favourite buildings 
the shapes of the windows on the outside 
I call them un-equal quadrilateral
its the UBS building
I don't know what that means
or it houses UBS
its massive

I'm back where I started 
2 days ago
Going to take a few more photos round here 
couple more photos I see in the distance 
then head to the studio
so thats it for today
​

Exploration through images words & captions

#lookup

fly up and over
or
am I flying down & through
or
​balancing on the edge free as a bird

all three options are real to me

look down

#doubleyellows
curved wickets
playing cricket
​

moving through

flying close to the ground
geometric directionality
down city street
​

still reflection

bomb disposal
now safe & sound
or lying in wait

hard to explain
how I feel

I can climb
I can fly
to the UBS top
 reimagined reality
Ultra Bonkers crazy wandererS

back down
to earth with a Bang
googled
UBS Bank
where POPS
refers to Pops & Drops

Privately Owned Public Space
forgotten?
fallen between the cracks?
