Lake House Arts is pleased to present Architecture in Music, a new suite of photographs by Auckland-based photographer Charles Brooks. A fascinating look inside the interiors of instruments, Brooks uses a tilt-shift effect and a probe lenses to capture the hidden worlds inside of instruments. A cellist since childhood, Brooks spent two decades performing around the world with orchestras. This experience that sparked curiosity about the inner workings of the instruments surrounding him. The photographic process ignites a new appreciation of the craftsmanship which goes into the creation of Steinway pianos, flutes, saxophones and didgeridoos.
