This animation is based on a group of images created at City Lit in late 2019 as part of a Printmaking Artist Residency. Forty images were made based on a photographic image of the Shell Building on London’s South Bank. The object of the project was to attempt to create images of buildings which would convey the evil inherent in their function. Shell has been at the heart of the oil industry for the past century and its headquarters building is an icon of climate change complacency. Each image is designed to communicate bad intentions and the animation, together with captions, seeks to tell something of their story.
