Urban patina…

Winnipeg, Canada

Working in the core of this city’s Exchange District for over three decades, it’s easy to take for granted the wonderful “texture” and “acquired patina” of this 20-block area (designated as a National Historic Site in 1997). I have yet to find anyone who’s documented the aging glory of the architectural jewels that comprise our downtown community (and the idiosyncratic signs that adorn their facades) than Bryan Scott… kudos to you! (I’ve mentioned Bryan’s oeuvre before, here, thanks to my colleague Adrian Shum).

All photographs were taken within a few blocks of Circle; all images from Love & Hate Winnipeg © Bryan Scott.
