St Helier Photoshoot 3

For this photo shoot, I wanted to capture the modernization of St Helier and show the development which is occurring to improve the area and build a stronger community. When wondering around the area i noticed that the development was a lot less centered around community but more around making life better for others with new modern buildings, and what appears to be making St Helier more futuristic.

These few photos above demonstrate a sense of community without actual people being there. This is because of the nature of the place I have photographed and the goals/aspirations of the people that run the building. The building is the freedom church which once was a cinema. Both attractions designed to bring people together and build a sense of community. The freedom church aims to bring youngsters off the streets at night causing trouble and provide a safe place for them to hang out. These photos provide a strong juxtaposition with my second photo shoot that focuses on the destruction of the area which relates to the kids causing trouble on the streets and vandalizing buildings.
