This diptych focuses on the contrast between the Canary Wharf skyline and nearby low-income housing to show how wealth in London is built upwards and designed to dominate the skyline. The towering financial buildings act as symbols of economic success and global capital, standing tall and highly visible, reinforcing which parts of the city are celebrated and invested in.

In contrast, the low-income housing remains physically lower and visually overlooked, despite existing within close proximity to extreme wealth. The short distance between these two spaces highlights that inequality in London is not about separation by location, but by perception, power, and access. By pairing these images, I wanted to show how inequality is embedded into the city’s structure, where prosperity is elevated and poverty is kept out of sight.
