Tower of Babel 2 2007
etching
17.0 x 13.0 cm (plate)
St Bernard's College, Essendon
Inspired by the Renaissance works of Pieter Brueghel, in particular The little tower of Babel, 1564, this image is a modern interpretation intended to represent contemporary construction as a world of hubris and arrogance, and to create a link between skyscrapers and the biblical narrative of the Tower of Babel. Developed from an original photograph that I took, I manipulated the photo onto a zinc plate using high temperatures.
