If you look at 'Trash and Treasure' below, this is the same image (really!) with most of the colour removed, to indicate an archeological dig. It takes on the appearance of a fossil. So what was once rubbish to be collected, is now something of value perhaps.
This reminds me of archaeological digital imaging/surveys (google/wikipedia for "geophysical survey") or crop marks (google "crop marks archaeology"). Picking up something that cannot be seen by other means: "Because something has vanished, because it can no longer be seen, doesn't mean it's not there." (Iain Sinclair, "London Orbital")
ReplyDeleteVery intriguing image...
