Solarization and Architecture

Looking at space and places ..

I am interested in architecture both old and new and buildings are the subjct of many of my projects. These are some images that I took for a recent module and using the technique of solarisation I set out to manipulate and change the imagery to become surreal urban visions of what something futuristic might look like.. I am interested in the effect that this creative technique has on the visual elements of my work. My main focus is the shape and form looking at unique features, angles and expressive qualities of a building. These are further enhanced by the use of specialised creative techniques to prodice visually stimulating imagery which have a dreamlike and surreal quality. I am drawn to the sculptural qualities of buildings and structures and their place within society and the purpose of the space and how it can be transformed into something altogether unreal
