City+: Land excavation & housing, Cairo
This photograph of land excavation & housing in Cairo is from my 'City+' series.
Both thrilling and frightening, massive growth of cities is one of the global features of our time.
City+ looks at striking city developments in regions that have been at the forefront of urban growth - The Middle East, India and China. The photographs include brand new skylines, extensive landscaping and excavation, ambitious architecture and infrastructure, sprawling housing and high-rise towers.
Author: Both thrilling and frightening, massive growth of cities is one of the global features of our time. Working as an architectural photographer since 2000, I've become engrossed by urbanism - its structures, narratives and transformations.
For my commercial work I have photographed many high profile construction projects around the world. These include:
1 World Trade Centre, NY / The National Museum of Qatar, Doha / BBC Broadcasting House, London / BBC Media City, Manchester / Hoglands, Grade 1 listed restoration of Henry Moores former home & etching studio.
