The Railway Project

The evening I started working on the Railway Project is the evening when train stations started to appeal different to me. Until then, those stations where a Drop off / Pick up stops, and railways were no more than a mean of commuting for me. That day I came out of Helsinki's main train station, and although I have stood on that platform so many times before, yet this time was different. This time the overhead lines, the pylons, the lights and the rails, all this mix of urban elements blending together with the sunset sky colors just fascinated me. I felt then I ought to work on my own dedication to these vital city scenes.
