EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a striking contrast between the historic Islington Mill, representing the old Salford, and the modern architecture of Salford University. Taken from Canon Hussey Court on 6th March 1978, this image transports us back to the vibrant cityscape of the 1970s. On one side stands Islington Mill, an iconic symbol of Salford's industrial past. Its red-brick facade proudly showcases its history as a textile mill that once thrived in this bustling neighborhood. The intricate details and sturdy structure evoke a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. In stark contrast, we see the sleek lines and contemporary design of Salford University's buildings on the other side. These towering structures represent progress and innovation in education during that time period. With their glass windows reflecting sunlight, they exude an air of sophistication while blending harmoniously with their surroundings. The composition beautifully juxtaposes these two architectural styles against each other, highlighting both continuity and change within Salford's urban landscape. It serves as a reminder that cities are constantly evolving organisms where tradition converges with progress. Currie's skillful capture not only freezes this moment in time but also invites viewers to ponder upon how our built environment shapes our collective memory and identity. This photograph is truly a testament to his talent for encapsulating stories within frames.
