architectural photography
Architectural photography is the act of sanctifying inert concrete facades as if they were religious relics, beautifying them through a ceremonial interplay of light and shadow. An empty office tower, when framed by the photographer, is elevated into a futuristic cathedral. Yet this gaze discards the human dramas within and the reality of decay, crafting the fiction of the “perfect edifice.” The pristine glass curtain wall becomes a stage prop that praises the architect’s ambition while concealing flaws in construction. What is truly captured is the artifice of architectural beauty and the magic that makes us forget the harshness of maintenance.
