Artist statement
Harland and Wolff Harland and Wolff Drawing Office closed in 1989 and soon fell into in a state of disrepair. My aim was to record the Drawing Office before its unique internal structures and features were lost to developers. This was the building where the Titanic and her sister ship the Olympic were designed, and from where their construction was organized and monitored. All images were taken on C41 film with a 6x6 medium format camera.
