On the occasion of the 20th anniversary
of the artist-run center Gallery 101, the director, François Dion,
invited four photographers to make a series of images on the subject of
'Ottawa', the home of the gallery. The other photographers were: Jeff Thomas, Marlene Creates and David Dybiec. Since I live in Ottawa's Chinatown, I decided to photograph Somerset street at night, as a personal wink to my ealiest work: Vancouver's east end and Chinatown at night. This time, however, I concentrated on the eclectic nature of the architecture and the lack of unified urban design, reflecting the rich and diversified history of that street. I saw the series as "the other side" of Ottawa. |
