Creative Church Altars By Cyril Porchet
Swiss photographer Cyril Porchet’s
final year show included this awesome series of the most opulent
Baroque church altars he could find in Spain, Austria and Germany. His
intention was to explore the seductive power of display. What is
extraordinary is how much you lose all sense of perspective and depth,
such is the overabundance of detail. I like how the odd feature confuses
all the more; like the red rope of the ornamental light in the image
below for instance which neatly splices the image in half. I could pore
over these for hours and hours.
