Fine Art & Stock Photography showing the World from a Unique perspective
Belém Tower or the Tower of St Vincent is a fortified tower located in the Belém district of Lisbon, Portugal.
It is an UNESCO World Heritage Site (along with the nearby Jerónimos Monastery) because of the significant role it played in the Portuguese maritime discoveries of the era of the Age of Discoveries. The tower was commissioned by King John II to be both part of a defense system at the mouth of the Tagus River and a ceremonial gateway to Lisbon.

The Greetings From series is a tribute to postcards and postal art, using references from constructivist collages.
On the other hand, the displayed cities are not named, creating a game where the observer has to gather tips to find out its name. The photos being assembled on a over-sized stamp is also a postal card reference – on the usual postcard the stamp is placed on the card, while here, the art is placed on the stamp.
