metropolitan architecture (ongoing)
“Space is not a scientific object removed from ideology or politics. It has always been political and strategic. There is an ideology of space. Because space, which seems homogeneous, which appears as a whole in its objectivity, in its pure form, such as we determine it, is a social product.”

This ongoing series documents different forms and textures in Western metropolitan architecture. The images were taken in Vienna, Paris, and New York. The buildings vary in function and architectural style and represent the visual cacophony of each city's metropolitan life. They provide a resonant space for their different visions of social life: from the brutalist social housing complexes in Paris, to Vienna's municipal buildings, to New York's skyscrapers of the early 20th century.
