My research explored the exterior spaces of this 1960’s Tower block, in the middle of the Oxfordshire countryside. (Formerly The Lady Spencer-Churchill College of Education, now part of Oxford Brookes University, Wheatley, Oxfordshire). Built to replace the emergency teaching College at Bletchley Park after the 2nd World War, this former teacher training, Brutalist designed college is due to be demolished in 2025. 

With camera and pen I explored the spaces beneath the tower block, recording the shadow shapes as they formed and changed throughout the day. This set of captured shadows have been cut and folded in different ways to represent the changing patterns the shadows create and serving as a record of time passing. The colours used reference colour palettes from 1964 to 1966.
