Het Nieuwe Instituut, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
Design (2013): Jo Coenen. Light Art by Peter Struycken.
Created for the "Shock of the New" Group's challenge, "Urban Blue".
A common theme that's run through my entire photo stream, the undoing or even sabotage of the right angle, which, for me, represents authority, over-masculinity and a modern world's disconnect from Nature.
Right or 90 degree angles are purely a human construction, except for maybe bismuth crystals and basalt columns. There are very few places in Nature where you seem them. The cutting edge in architecture is getting away from these harsh propositions, which I think reflects a possible trend away from absolutist thinking.
Two Pano-Sabotaged images and one "straight" shot, blended, repeated, flipped and layered. Photo manipulation.
Image compiled May, 2017.

Music Link: "The Great Curve" - Talking Heads w/ Brian Eno, from their album "Remain in Light" ( 1980 ). I've used this track before but thought it very appropriate for this image.
