EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph captures the remnants of a bygone era, frozen in time at Greenham Common Airbase in West Berkshire. The image showcases the imposing Cruise missile bunkers that once stood as silent sentinels during the Cold War. Damian Grady's lens beautifully encapsulates the eerie stillness and historical significance of this missile shelter complex. The composition reveals a sprawling gamma complex, with its network of concrete bunkers strategically scattered across the landscape. These structures were designed to safeguard powerful Cruise missiles, ready to be deployed at a moment's notice if tensions escalated during this tense period in history. As we gaze upon this snapshot from 2020, it is impossible not to reflect on the weighty historical events that unfolded within these very walls. The car park adjacent to the bunker serves as a stark reminder of human activity amidst an otherwise desolate scene. Damian Grady's skillful photography allows us to appreciate both the architectural grandeur and haunting legacy of these missile bases. This print transports us back in time, evoking contemplation about our collective past and reminding us never to forget the lessons learned from those tumultuous years. In preserving this visual record through his lens, Grady invites viewers into an immersive experience where they can explore and ponder upon one chapter of our shared history – a testament to humanity's resilience during times marked by uncertainty and global tension.
