I explore one of the finest achievements of English architecture -- the great medieval cathedrals, which exhibit a wonderful range of architectural styles, their evolution and implementation. I’m engrossed by the imagination and skills of those who conceived and built them, the awe-inspiring scale and the interactions between form and function at a human level, as well as a sense of the faith and divine purpose for which they were created. It’s these elements that I’m attempting to capture in my photographs -- structures that signal strength and purpose, beauty and majesty, elegance and grace, exuberance and awe, intimacy and reflection – demonstrating such a magnificent variety of form for common functions.
