Today is the Tomorrow You Were Promised Yesterday. 1976
This image boasts a typically British street scene. Alongside the image is a poetic verse which speaks of an exotic idyll, conflicting with the drudgery of the image. It amplifies the dashing hopes, forgotten dreams and social and political injustices of a beleaguered nation. The bitter title, directly addressing the viewer, underscores the message. He focuses his work on the nature of representation. While out deriving i grew to like these scenes which i have documented in a similar way to Burgin. I plan to research further into this.
