A closer look at the work

Several skyscraper façades stand closely layered. Pale square windows repeat on the left; narrow vertical lines cross a cool-grey surface on the right. Warm light catches a red central structure with a distinct stepped edge. Dark intervals make buildings both neighbours and separate masses.

Tower Block 1 reduces the city to portions of vertical order. Streets and people are absent, yet windows provide an indirect scale of inhabitation. Different grids read as neighbouring systems. Light determines which surfaces recede and which advance. Architecture becomes a relationship of distance and visibility rather than merely a collection of individual buildings.

Personal consultation

The work, the space, the presentation.

What interests you about this work? I take time for your questions, its origins and its place in a collection. Together, we explore differences between works and their relationship with space, light and architecture.

Size, selected materials and bespoke framing are carefully coordinated. The precise presentation develops through our conversation.

A photograph of the intended space can help us consider scale and placement.
