Sources of Inspiration and References
This image was inspired by the idea of "bridges vs walls" and the rise of divisiveness in world politics in the last few years.
I imagined a modern take on the immense wall portrayed in Game of Thrones, separating some unknown "haves" from the wasteland of the "have nots". Similar to GoT, this wall has an imposing face, watch towers spaced along its length, and an implied pathway on the uppermost level.
I've always been a big fan of early truss style bridges, so I researched and built the version here (based on the Owensburo Bridge) to fit the scene.

The "hero" in the scene drives a 1960 VW in "mango grün" with a mint/cream interior (the first car I owned).
