Eternal Stones

"Eternal Stones" consists of a series of photographs depicting ancient stones, rocks and marble walls, all of which I photographed in Via Sacra inside the Roman Forum. The rocks depict the ancient civilisation of the Roman Empire, one of history’s greatest empires. During my editing process, I isolated the stones from their surroundings and recomposed them in minimal ways.I combined the images of the stones with photos of marble backgrounds which I shot inside the Temple of Romulus. My aim through the compositions of rocks and marble walls, was to evoke the beauty, strength and power of the ancient Roman civilisation. Although weathered by time, these scattered and fragmented stones remain an eternal symbol of power of a monumental past.
