Vanishing Point is a series of large digitally manipulated photographs dealing with the production of space, and specifically the uses of space by power. The images depict public ‘monumental’ spaces in London and Helsinki – for example Trafalgar Square. In the images, the monuments have been carefully removed to create a new space – a space in habited by people who continue to stare blankly at some invisible force. By removing the objects which people/tourists come to see, the invisible power underlying the spaces is revealed.
