Nighthawks - Edward Hopper

Initially, my attention was drawn to the lively social environment of the couple in the background, but after closer examination, I noticed the character with his back turned and how interesting this was. Hopper was able to draw attention away from him, through utilising light and texture, which allowed for him to tp appear unnoticed and therefore focused on the mystery surrounding him. He seems to be drinking on his own in what appeared to be a bar, which inclined my perception of this character to be similar to that of a modern day alcoholic bar fly. This therefore shaped the idea behind my narration:

A bar for a lonely, alcoholic man who has an obsession with people watching.

With the objective to create of the series of spaces that embody the needs of this character through employing similar ideas and techniques to those used by hopper.
