Three Buoys and University of Ulster, Belfast, Northern Ireland, 2010
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the unique blend of art and architecture in Belfast's cityscape. Standing proudly against the backdrop of the University of Ulster, three vibrant buoys steal the spotlight. A gift from the Commissioners of Irish Lights to the city, these buoyant structures have become a symbol of amusement for seafarers. Established in 1968, the University of Ulster is not only an educational institution but also a testament to modern design. Its sleek lines and contemporary aesthetic create a striking contrast with nature's beauty surrounding it. However, controversy arose when Belfast City Council decided to repaint these iconic buoys in inappropriate colors. Mariners quickly pointed out that at sea, spotting a blue buoy would be incredibly challenging. Nevertheless, this unintentional act added an unexpected touch of whimsy to an already picturesque scene. Photographer Peter Thompson expertly captures this moment in time – showcasing both man-made creations and natural elements harmoniously coexisting. The image invites viewers to appreciate how architecture can seamlessly integrate with its surroundings while still evoking emotions and sparking conversations. As we gaze upon this photograph print, we are reminded that art has no boundaries – even when it comes to repainted buoys by well-meaning council members! It serves as a reminder that sometimes mistakes can lead us down uncharted paths filled with unexpected joy and laughter.
