Initially linked thematically with the Phantom Cities exhibition, these photographs include a variety of cities from around the world.

The image and character of modern cities are formed over many centuries, by both their inhabitants and visitors. The perception of a city for someone living and breathing in it is often very different to, perhaps, the more glamorous image in the minds of those living hundreds of miles away. I am interested in how buildings can transcend their function and place and often bleak, anonymous architecture to reach an iconic status.
