Chloes project in progress, a still from the short film



The view before entering the Parkland walk at the Highgate entrance
in the distance is the city. In between the city and the recreation space, lies Hornsey road bridge known locally as “suicide bridge”. It is the only significant suicide bridge in world to pass over land rather than water. I was on first seeing taken by the lead up to this bridge and daunting concrete framing the road. I am interested in the monotony of the traffic and noise running underneath the bridge yet the underlying sadness of this functional structure and silence around the bridge. I am making a short video piece exploring the landscape surrounding and view from the bridge.
