Abstract
This photo essays fleshes out the notion of juxtaposition, both as an empirical reality in unequal cities but also as a visual and aesthetic technique to capture the overlaps between powerful and everyday city fabrics. Across a series of nine images, I illustrate the visual practice of juxtaposition by finding the edge of the two fabrics within the same place, of contrasting textures and tones, the product of chance material collisions. But I also wish to move beyond the juxtaposition of unequal materialities to capture other jagged and sundered activities and encounters, between people and materiality, between the holy and profane, between the old and the new. Further, I ask how juxtaposition can be a visual practice in and of itself, and to what ends for capturing the twenty-first century city.
