In his latest series of photographs, leading British photographer Mark Power returns to the dialogue between real and imaginary space. In this project, Power explores the edges of London as defined by the A to Z atlas, photographing indistinct places where the city falls away into nothingness. Power decodes the marginalised and forgotten corners of the city in his search for the commonplace, the banal and the absurd. For Power, visiting these sites has been a journey into the unknown, a voyage into a form of emptiness where he becomes witness to the energies of the city evaporating into strange new patterns of life.
