One Hundred Years of Sleep no 3 (Facing South Entrance)

By David Jones 2014
The view of Park Hill, Sheffield facing along the train track. This is visualised a hundred years after the exit of people from the area. The train track and adjacent dual carriageway have become filled with water and a population of water borne life has replaced the commuters who once travelled down it. The original photo I drew from had the Norfolk Park flats in the background which were being knocked down at the time and did if fact look like that.
