In Praise of Shadows

‘We find beauty not in the thing itself but in the patterns of shadows, the light and the darkness, that one thing against another creates... Were it not for shadows, there would be no beauty.’

This collection of black and white photographs is an ode to the architectural wonders that stand bathed not in colour, but in the eloquence of shadow. From the stoic sentinels of historic forts to the stark poetry of brutalist giants.
