<b>Before entering this contest please read <a href="https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artists/bernd-becher-and-hilla-becher-718/who-are-bechers">this Tate article.</a></b> Bernd and Hilla Becher make a fascinating choice for our ‘Inspired by’ series. For 40 years they documented disappearing industrial architecture, in a documentary and consistent style - in black and white, with no people, and often presenting different examples of the same type of structure in a grid format. This contest invites you to use their work as inspiration, but submitted images do not have to strictly conform to the ways in which the Bechers worked, so could for example be in colour not black and white.
