Ghost in my Own Geography

I have walked these streets since childhood, yet I remain a ghost in my own geography. The project is a photographic study of the post-war churches that shape my town’s skyline, structures born of mid-century optimism that have since settled into a quiet, concrete restraint. Conceived as essential centres for emerging communities, these buildings now stand as monumental introverts.

In their bold geometric forms and their wide, silent peripheries, I find an echo of myself. I am a lifelong resident who somehow still feels an outsider; part of the local bedrock, yet never fully aligned. This project investigates that tension, how architecture can both anchor and displace, how a building can reflect one’s own estrangement
