GILES PRICE : MACROSCOPIC OLYMPIAD
2011-05-09“Macroscopic Olympiad” is a selection of photographs from a documentary project by Giles Price, which portrays a large scale and minutely detailed aerial vision of the Olympic Park during a period of rapid construction.This visual language is only available through flight, reiterating the smallness not only of the physical being, but of the interior perspective on navigating a landscape.” Merging the landscape with group portraiture, mini-scenes with human workers intersperse amidst the machines and structures. Unlike computer models made up of composite images, the images capture the breadth of the mega-project on several compositional levels in moments of real time, by offering an alternate vision of the Olympic construction process.
Exhibition runs from May 19th to June 18th, 2011
