the rising green tide covers the concrete garden

I'm still on break from the urban greenwave series; it's just too hot. That said, this image series (produced to promote our gig last weekend) is engaging with one of the future urban greenwave items which is vegetation mats, in this case provided by a rising tide of virginia creeper.





We're in University Square, and these are halls of residence. Sat in a white van, panting in the heat, was the man who'd been sent to get this overgrowth under control, scraped back from the pavement.

The lawn below was trimmed and the creeper rolled back to the wall, but all this had been left, sweltering in the blistering heat.
