Martyn Wood - Architectural images

These montages, which are essentially simple reflections of office buildings, are an attempt to depict an ordinary subject (as with the pansies) in a different way and emphasise one particular aspect …which is, when people design buildings for purely commercial reasons they usually look alien in their surroundings.

I think that each montage of these reflected images show a separation from the natural world that is the opposite of the flower photographs with which they were shown.

I like the way some of the reflections of the sky in the glass cladding of these buildings show a completely different view to that of the sky beyond.
