Piece description from the artist
As people and a lone runner move toward the camera on Millennium Bridge, the striking silhouette of the Tate Modern rises ahead. This dynamic scene captures the concurrence of motion and stillness, where individual journeys intersect against the backdrop of contemporary art and the timeless flow of the Thames. In this moment, the bridge becomes a pathway of connection, linking the human experience with the cultural soul of the city. I love the lines and the space in this photo. The curved and straight lines of the bridge, the outline of the museum, and the outline on the banks of the river mixed with the space in the corners makes it interesting.
Esan Swan is a professional photographer, journalist and picture editor at the Financial Times in London. With deep roots in his community and heritage, his work seeks to represent the rich multicultural storytelling that inspired him in his youth and continues to do so now well into his career. Historical documentary photography and varying art and social movements as well as commercial interpretation of beauty have influenced his work into a contemporary style that could be called its own. Originally from Bermuda and partly raised in the United States, his international approach to storytelling, from commissioned picture essays to independent work on his website, is defined by the aesthetics of nature, design and human connections.
