City of Churches
City of Churches
Lost amongst the crucifixes of surrounding Stobie poles,
rooted incongruously in its location, the Church of Christ - Croydon 2006
typifies the focus of the series City of Churches.
Recording these symbols of belief, these edifices that inherently lack
the grandeur that is typically associated with religious architecture,
has bordered on obsession. Flaunting the flaneur's fascination towards a
detached but aesthetically attuned observation, this series becomes a typology
for the congregations of South Australia.
The image and the series City of Churches revels in the tacit formalism
afforded to black and white images; a mode that sets a trigger that embodies
an enduring signature of photography
