I was very lucky to shoot in an empty Unity Temple this week. This is still an active place of worship. The building was designed by Frank Lloyd Write and opened in 1908. It is considered the first "modern" building. My photos do no justice to the feeling in this room. Airy, yet quiet, with an amazing warm glow. Truly a beautiful place.

Zickri is an Australian who lives in Sydney & is now doing his 3-month industrial training at Be Digital. I haven't had the chance to ask him about his perspective on Love & Unity but hopefully by Monday the coming week we shall discuss his views. Coincidentally, his surname is Teo & his father's name is Peter Teo. :D
Businesses in the city have welcomed news that the iconic Unity Works is set to reopen as a business and conference centre just three months after going into administration.
Unity Bars and Clubs, which already operates The Establishment in the same building on Westgate, has already booked conferences and events at the listed building and is promising to secure the safety of other high-profile events this summer.
Renamed, Unity Hall and Business Space Limited, the company, headed up by entrepreneur Rob Green, is looking to guarantee the future for the 23 businesses currently operating out of the Westgate venue and attract more conferences to the location which was renovated to reflect its 19th century heritage in 2013.

Artist Statement
The theme for my currency is unity and harmony. This is a universal currency for all people, all as one. Therefore, the name of this currency is called ἐva, which means one in Greek; one currency for one world for a people all as one. The idea for this currency is to bring all people together to become one. In creating this currency many symbols were used.
In the first currency, the unicorn on the right represents purification, healing, wisdom, renewal, eternal life, self-knowledge and power. Thus, the unicorn represents both elements of harmony and what a currency stands for: power and eternity. The origin of the unicorn originated from Greek historian Ctesias. Since unicorns are often seen with or when there is a moon, I have added a crescent moon on the upper left hand corner.
In the second currency doves were used because of their representation of peace or universal peace, the whiteness of the dove is also seen as purification. In the upper right hand corner there is an outline of the world that goes along with the theme of the second currency—universal peace.
Both currencies used similar colors and symbols as a way to tie the two currencies together. The color gold was used to represent the worth of the currency; I imagined that there would be small flakes of real gold in the currency (if brought to life). Colors of golden yellow and amber were used to represent comfort and calmness. Aqua colors gave a positive feeling of refreshing water and coolness. On the bottom left hand corner is a universal symbol representing unity, thus right under it is the World Bank. The symbol behind the currency number is the universal symbol for infinity. In ancient India and Tibet, it represented perfection, dualism and unity between male and female. In occult tarot it is linked to magic and represents equilibrium or balance. But today, this symbol is most known for its representation of infinity in numbers, time and space, relating to eternity. I especially wanted to incorporate circles into the middle background because circles are a representation of continuity, unbreakable as a people all as one. Circles are also an ancient and universal symbol of unity, wholeness and infinity.
I also wanted to put elements of the earth into this currency. Therefore, yellow represents the sun, aqua and the leaves behind the unity symbol represent water and nature, there is the moon and the darkness of the unicorn and doves represent nightfall. In this project I used many tools such as the pen, trace, rectangle, gradient, transparency, align and much more.
Considered one of Frank Lloyd Wright's most important buildings, the Unity Temple was constructed from 1905 to 1908 to serve as the building for a Universalist congegation in Oak Park, IL.
