“Andrew Lee raises architectural photography to realm of artwork. He does this first visually, through his ability to take control of time and space to create extended moments in the construction of a photograph’s composition and secondly conceptually, through the introduction of narrative.
To explain Andrew’s work, it is the very opposite of reportage photography which relies on happenstance and instant occurrences. Andrew rather controls the sky, the altering play of light and dark, the casting of shadow, the effects of the sun on the colour and tone of materials, to ultimately compose with expert visual intelligence, works of clarity. The technical skills he has in support of his practice are significant.
Andrew’s photographs have conceptual intent that make your architecture better. Andrew celebrates the ‘idea’ of the architecture in his photography. Perhaps it’s a person in the image, the placement of an object, the emphasis given to a vertical or horizontal line, everything combines with purpose.”
