Solution: The Twin Towers will for most people now hold a place in history for the tragic terrorist attacks which occured over a decade ago. For me it was important to pay homage to this magnificent structure and took the opportunity to create a memorial piece. The structures are constructed from walls of text which contain key facts and figures about the World Trade Centre. A combination of slow moving cameras, drifting sky textures and a gritty black and white visual style was designed to create the sense of awe one might feel passing under the structures, either by foot or in a yellow cab, when these two amazingly tall buildings were originally built.
