Looking for Me - Words from Konichiwa by Skepta. De Beauvoir Estate, London, 2017 is a 16" x 20" C-Type Print from a Limited Edition of 25 by Samuel Hicks.
Apartment blocks on an estate in London leap into the dusky blue evening sky. On the roof of the lowest block we read the words, "Lookin for me".
In this series by London-based photographer Samuel Hicks, the words and lyrics of popular and sometimes evocative songs are set into the urban landscape in neon light.
In this composition, Looking for Me, Hicks matches the location to the content of the lyrics. A vast urban estate sprawls out in the soft twilight sky, and a scattering of lights are switched on in homes, lending small pops of glow to the otherwise dusky landscape.
Abstracted from the original context of the complete lyrics and song, the words presented to the viewer appear with multiple meanings. Are you looking for me? Or perhaps a more introspective, I am looking for me, echoing the feeling of isolation and lost-ness that hits unexpectedly.
