It’s no secret I like photography and to take photos. Photography is one of my favourite visual arts. The other being architecture.
I took some photos of the 21st Mira Mobile Prize exhibition. They are on a photo gallery on Mondo’s Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/mondobizarremagazine/
21st Mira Mobile Prize runs until August 1 at Mira Forum, Porto. Wednesday to Saturday,3-7pm. Free entry.
Field Notes – The Architecture of the Lane my new post on The Polymath talks of a late afternoon walk I took through old lanes and modern pavements reveals layers of architecture, class and memory. Abandoned houses, workers’ housing, porcelain swallows, hidden exhibitions and a clearing carpeted with fallen apples beneath a waxing Moon. Field Notes – The Architecture of the Lane can be read here.
