A special in the Virtual Journey series, 28 years after my first visit to Istanbul I made the same walk and took about 900 pictures. On 12 locations I took the same picture in 1996\. The result is a multi layered image of both photo's showing the ghost of Istanbul past seeping into today.

The _Virtual Journeys_ series is a continuously growing collection of **visual travel stories** where travel meets art and offers a unique glimpse into everyday life across several world capitals. Designed as graphic-novel-style narratives, each page stands alone as a **mini story**, while collectively, they form a larger, immersive tale of urban exploration.

  
**London 14 Dragons**

The City of London, roughly the size of a square mile, is historically protected by 14 cast-iron dragon statues that mark its entry points, guarding the roads against invaders. These dragons—placed on plinths—demarcate the boundary of the City of London, a location with roots tracing back to the Roman settlement of the 1st century AD, extending through the Middle Ages. Though the ancient walls are long gone, this inner city remains a distinct entity within London, an area rich in history and still symbolically guarded by these City of London dragon statues.

The gradient series is a body of work of 36 images in total that use bold colours, attention grabbing gradient and gold rendered text to grab the attention of the viewer. It represents the struggle for attention we see across all media today. Once the viewer is focussed they see the text that invites them to pause, take distance and reflect.
