Photographer Rut Blees Luxemburg tells us how she made High-Rise - A Modern Project, a photograph of a London tower block at night that took on another life as the cover of one of the most influential British albums of the 21st century.

 

In Germany, where I'm from, we have completely different cities. In London, you don't have many high-rise blocks, so yours are very visible. But what is also interesting to me as an artist is that they provide visibility - you can look out over the city from them. So this is both a photograph of a high-rise, and a photograph from one.
