Keith Arnatt

The Keith Arnatt image I have chosen is one from his series of images titled “Miss Grace’s Lane“.

(Arnatt, 1986)

I was drawn to this image as it seems like any old piece of waste ground that I might find in my local area. The broken red racket immediately focuses my eye, which then progresses towards the sunlight shining on the hedge. From here  the path / track leads out of the picture left or right. You are presented with a decision on where to go, but for me my eye favours the broken ground  in the top right corner. For me a triangle of interest is formed between the racket, the sunlight and broken ground.
