In his Churches project, David Spero documents buildings which are being used as churches, but were originally intended for another purpose. These buildings feature none of the traditional architecture associated with places of worship, and can often be found in unexpected places.
David visited our large object store in Insight: Collections and Research Centre to be filmed for a video which will be on display in the gallery. He was interviewed by Philippa Wright, Curator of Photographs and the Churches exhibition.
In the interview David spoke about his inspiration for the project—citing the work of author Philip K. Dick—plus the process of creating the series, his photographic methods and selection process.
