Artwork description:

Digital Art Photo of the gravel conveyor below the Chicago Skyway Bridge over the Calumet River near 95th street in Chicago. Historically, a great deal of industrial development occurred because of access to transportation on the Calumet River, known as “Chicago’s Other River.”

Transformation Is true of this region on a symbolic level as well as being my artistic media. The vibrant colors in my photos represent the vital role this industrial hub played in developing the Calumet region. This digital art is from my series, Steel Giants Of The Heartland. The series celebrates the industrial area around 95th Street and the Calumet River, with its bridges, electrical towers, and train tracks. They are powerful icons of a recent era, an era of boundless dynamic energy. These outsized icons now loom here in this gigantic, eerie, outdoor museum.

My digital art is printed on enhanced matte, archival paper. It is shipped well-protected in a sturdy cardboard tube. If you prefer a different size photo please use the message link on the right side of the screen, “Questions for the seller” to contact me. I can also provide prints on canvas with a black edge that can be hung without a frame.

Materials used:

Enhanced matte, archival paper
