Description/Abstract:

This photograph, Dagenham Heathway is one from the series 'A Scape' and it was selected by the photographer and artist Rut Blees Luxemburg who curated a monthly series of artworks for the AR relating to questions of space and architecture.

The heaps of raw materials, made of the remains of demolished buildings, supply the essential aggregate used to construct the city. They are nonetheless, mountains, and evoke Heinrich Heine's 1823 poem 'Lyrical Intermezzo'. 'Ich steh'auf des Berges Sptize, Und werde sentimental,' which translates as, 'I stand on the mountain's summit and am getting sentimental'.
