Royal Albert Hall

The Royal Albert Hall in London's Kensington district is impressive, it was built to impress over 130 years ago and it still impresses today. It's also big, not big by today's stadium standards, but big by the standards of this building being tucked into the very upmarket residential royal borough (district) of Kensington, London.
I've been inside this building many times over the years; sometimes as a guest, sometimes working, and I can tell you from first hand experience it's just as impressive on the inside as it is on the outside.
The Royal Albert Hall has been hosting consorts of one sort or another ever since it's construction and should you get the opportunity to attend one I'd highly recommend it.

Capturing this huge building was something of a challenge due to its size and the proximity of the houses on either side. I'd have preferred to capture the front aspect, however when I visited the trees which stand sentry duty outside obscured most of the building, so I quickly realised that photographing the rear of the building was the way to go.
You can't help notice the two tourists sitting on the steps, I didn't want to wait for them to go as I wanted to capture the building at that exact moment, tourists and all; kind of a reportage thing.
My hope is that viewers of this joiner will feel the majesty and grandeur of the building, that they'll feel the pomp and ceremony associated with this building.

The Unseen collaborator

Every Joiner begins in silence, then finds its structure through its unseen collaborator—music. The tempo sets the pace of assembly; melodies suggest movement and balance. Music shapes the emotional architecture of each piece, guiding where energy builds and where calm returns. To truly experience a Joiner, it should be viewed while listening to the music that shaped it. Only then does the visual rhythm align with the heartbeat, the beat, it was born from.

Each Joiner is created but not yet printed.

This is intentional. Printing every piece in advance would compromise the freedom each collector deserves. By commissioning a Joiner at the moment of purchase, you decide its scale and presence—tailored precisely to your space and vision. Every print is then produced to museum-grade archival standards, ensuring permanence, precision, and exclusivity.
