Cranes in Whitechapel, 2004

Cranes are harbingers of change. They puncture the view of London from my flat. Its a view that is constantly changing.  Cranes signal a new building often following the demolition of an old one. The slender beauty of these cranes was replaced by a new hospital which obliterated the view of Canary Wharf.
