Kevin Minogue: Rain and Chain


In this piece the idea of playfulness is reflected through the absence of any interaction.
Set on a bleak autumn day, the playground seems to come to life on its own accord.

My objective was to portray somewhere that is normally depicted as vibrant and energetic in a bleak and dreary light.

The playground is a perfect example of a location that would be exciting and full of life on a warm summer's day. But when it rains the same location is completely transformed by the lack of human element.

The motion of the swings represents the idea that life in the playground is perpetual and is in a constant existence from one day to the next.
