Carter's work uses stop-motion animation, time-lapse video and large
format photographs to spotlight iconic and political structures in our
urban environment, especially sports stadia, skyscrapers, churches, and
other historical landmarks. Cut photographic images and living plants
are used to make often humorous retellings of history - morphing and
recontextualizing architecture and urban development. Recent work draws
parallels between the inspiration and power of the natural world, and
human attempts to understand, manipulate and control it in the past,
present and future.
