EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by James O. Davies transports us back in time to the vibrant streets of Brierley Hill, Dudley, in the West Midlands. The image showcases a mesmerizing detail of coloured tiles that adorn the footing beneath a window on the north side of number 158 High Street. These tiles are not just any ordinary tiles; they represent an era of mid-20th century shop design that exudes both artistry and creativity. Reminiscent of the 1950s and 1960s, this decorative masterpiece captures the essence of abstract art with its bold and striking patterns. The colours used in these tiles evoke a sense of joy and playfulness, as if they were designed to bring life to this bustling high street. Each tile seems carefully placed to create an almost space-age aesthetic that is truly unique. James O. Davies has skillfully captured this architectural gem, allowing us to appreciate every intricate detail up close. Through his lens, we can marvel at how something as simple as tiling can transform a building into a work of art. This photograph serves as a reminder that even within our everyday surroundings, there is beauty waiting to be discovered. It encourages us to pay attention to our built environment and appreciate the craftsmanship that went into creating such stunning pieces like these coloured tiles on High Street in Brierley Hill.
