Original artwork description:
In the center of the large charcoal drawing, we see the Kottbusser Tor Bridge in Berlin from underneath, the focal point of the piece. The bridge looms above, dark and imposing, but light dances through the metal lattice work and structures, creating a stark contrast.
As the eye follows the bridge into the distance, we see a car with an open door, a Delorean from the 1980s that is a nod to Berlin's current fascination with retro style. In sharp contrast, at the base of the bridge, we see a homeless person with a cart, a character emblematic of the social problems that plague the city.
In the background, people are rushing to and fro on the Kottbusser Tor Station platform, creating a sense of urgency and chaos. Despite the bleakness of the scene, the skillful use of charcoal creates a certain beauty, capturing the contradictions of urban life in Berlin.
Materials used:
Charcoal, pastel, pencil
