There are cities we visit and cities we think we have visited, that we feel we have always known. Irene Kung photographs monuments rising out of nowhere, dazzling in their own light, stylised with pure lines. They come from different cities and eras, yet all seem to belong to a dream world: the Flatiron Building, Millennium Bridge, Milan’s Duomo and the Colosseum become apparitions of an ideal, invisible city.
