Abstract SAHMRI Interior Photography With Curves and Triangles
Rounded White Bands Rise Above a Dense Triangular Grid
I looked upward inside SAHMRI in Adelaide and found a composition that felt more like a pattern than a room. This black and white architectural photograph sets a dense triangular grid beneath a series of rounded white bands. The square frame holds their contrast: small, sharp repetitions below and broad, smooth curves above.
I was not trying to document the whole building. During that quiet moment inside, I wanted to follow the rhythm of its details. The grid grows smaller as it recedes towards the upper part of the image, giving the pattern a strong sense of depth. Bright openings keep appearing between dark lines, so the eye can move through the structure rather than resting on one solid surface.
The curved bands change that movement. They loop around a darker central opening, with each layer echoing the one outside it. I like how those large outlines gather the many small triangles into a more contained shape. The photograph has a nearly symmetrical balance, but differences in light and shadow keep it from feeling like a diagram.
Monochrome lets the geometry carry the image. In a modern interior, it can act as an architectural abstract while still offering the detail of an actual place. What drew me to it in 2016 still holds my attention: a building designed with precise repeated elements can produce a view that feels surprisingly fluid when I look at it from the right angle.

About My Fine Art Photography
Every photograph in my collection comes from my own travels, explorations, and years behind the camera.
I create my work as photographic art rather than mass-produced decoration. From street portraits and abandoned places to landscapes, architecture, and the unusual subjects I discover along the way, each image begins with something that made me stop and look.
My photographs are available in multiple sizes so the same image can work in anything from an intimate wall space to a large statement installation.
