Thinking Photography: Zhaneta Zhekova

As a part of the “Thinking Photography” group, Zhaneta Zhekova, a student from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design has been looking at statuary in Dundee and how has often overlooked. As a result, she has taken incredible black and white photos of Dundee’s 19th and early 20th century sculptural carvings which she has so kindly allowed us to share with you.

One of the heads on 55-65 Commercial St, designed by Alexander Johnston in 1877.
The Muses on Albert Institute (now the McManus) credited to sculptor James Frank Redfern, 1867.
An angry head on the Congregational Church designed by James Brewster in 1833.
A coloured image of a head on the entrance gateway to the Western Cemetery, designed by James R Findlater.
