Identity

Acrylic on canvas

This is one of the Bridgwater Circle series of paintings image captured while walking down the busy Taunton Road, Bridgwater, Somerset. An ordinary BT post, newly creosoted, wearing its identification disk with pride. The deep colours contrasted with the bright white plastic label stapled onto the lovely natural material. It just shows off the lovely wood impregnated with preservative. It stands at the side of the main road, a protected, decorated dead tree with an important job to do, a piece of street furniture standing tall and supporting our technology aloft.
