Big Power 11
Big Power 11
by Johny Midnight
The first Battersea painting to include human figures. Lowry-inspired silhouettes move across a mosaic foreground beneath a glowing sunset station - Battersea reimagined not as architecture alone, but as a living part of London life.
Limited edition fine art prints, hand-signed and numbered by the artist. Once the edition is sold out, it will not be reproduced.

Artwork Description
Battersea Power Station rises powerfully, its chimneys and brickwork glowing with oranges, fluorescent pinks and magentas as sunset light falls across the structure. The chimney stacks are painted in pale yellows and soft golds, catching the last warmth of the day. The expansive sky is built in large pale blue areas with sunset tones of orange and magenta drifting through. What sets this painting apart is the foreground of Lowry-inspired silhouetted figures moving across a surface that reads almost as a tiled mosaic - fragmented colour blocks suggesting reflections, paving and city rhythm beneath their feet.

Artist's Insight
Big Power 11 was about scale and humanity. After years of painting Battersea as a solitary, almost mythic structure, I felt compelled to introduce people - not as individuals, but as symbols of the wider city. The Lowry-inspired figures reflect my fascination with how people pass through spaces without ever fully owning them. Battersea Power Station, in this painting, becomes a backdrop to thousands of untold stories - commuters, walkers, workers, families - all moving beneath its towering presence. It bridges architecture and life, turning the power station from an object into an environment.
