EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of energy and movement in a mesmerizing night scene. Against the backdrop of Queen Elizabeth Park, the large illuminated neon letters spell out the word "RUN" outside the Copper Box Arena in Hackney Wick, Greater London. Created by Monica Bonvicini for the 2012 London Olympic Games, this impressive artwork stands as a testament to both art and design. The sculpture itself is a striking example of public art that seamlessly blends into its surroundings. The blackness of the night enhances its impact, making it even more visually arresting. It serves as an inspiration for sports enthusiasts and exercise aficionados alike, reminding them of their own motivation to push themselves further. Commissioned specifically for this purpose, this piece embodies not only physical activity but also a sense of community spirit that permeated during those memorable games. Its presence continues to resonate with visitors who pass by or engage with it directly. Simon Inglis has masterfully captured every detail in this photo print, allowing viewers to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance. Whether you are an admirer of contemporary sculpture or simply seeking some evening inspiration on your workout journey, this image will undoubtedly captivate your attention and ignite your imagination.
