Artist's Description
This is a digital painting I created from a photograph of the Hot Metal Bridge in Pittsburgh, PA. The bridge carries automotive traffic as well as cyclist and pedestrians. It is a repurposed railroad bridge.
The Hot Metal Bridge is a truss bridge that crosses the Monongahela River. The bridge consists of two parallel spans on a single set of piers, the former Monongahela Connecting Railroad Bridge, built in 1887, on the upstream side and the former Hot Metal Bridge, built in 1900, on the downstream side. The Monongahela Connecting Railroad Bridge carried conventional railroad traffic, while the Hot Metal Bridge connected parts of the J&L Steel mill, carrying crucibles of molten iron from the blast furnaces in ladle transfer cars to the open hearth furnaces on the opposite bank to be converted to steel. During World War II 15% of America's steel making capacity crossed over the Hot Metal Bridge, up to 180 tons per hour.
About Joyce Wasser
I started taking photos a long time ago as a child with a hand me down old Kodak camera that took a 125 film cartridge. At first it was simply a means to record events, places and people, but now I find excitement in trekking, usually by bicycle, through cities, small towns, rural communities, abandon industrial sites and old buildings. I absorb the sights, sounds, smells and lighting of new places and try to capture their essence and communicate something of their majesty, mystery, memory, and drama. For me photography is a way to share the excitement and beauty of the world and express my own unique view of it. It's an art and a powerful communicator.
