Here's an image to get an idea of the space I'm referring to:
The images below show the space that I can imagine my final proposed work being:
I've started to grow an interest in the location that sits above the River Rea and nearby the Custard Factory. These would be good subjects to consider for the final piece that I'll design up adjacent to the current mural.
The River Rea is one of the oldest rivers in the West Midlands but it is often hidden away from view due to the industrial build and expansion above and around the river. This has made me consider researching more into the River Rea itself as an iconic feature overlooked in Birmingham.
The Custard Factory is known all over the country for its dedication for creative arts and crafts. It provides work spaces for digital businesses and artists as well as hosting various independent shops, bars and cafes. As attractive as the Custard Factory is in its modern day form, I would like to research further back into the times of when it was indeed a custard factory, constructed by Sir Alfred Frederick Bird, the son of Alfred Bird who invented egg-free custard.
