As I have wandered around downtown, I have found myself looking up in awe and wonder at the architectural behemoths that tower over Chicago. All of them, old and new, have risen from the ashes of the Great Chicago Fire in 1871.
Chicago is a city with many faces. It is a feast for the eyes. That’s why I resort to taking pictures.
By flipping, reversing, and arranging them, those pictures have disappeared and dissolved into elaborate displays of color, patterning, and symmetry -- not unlike what one might see looking into a kaleidoscope.
In the following pages, you will get to see Chicago in a different way -- one that has been reimagined.
