Red Industrial Building with Urban Surroundings

A striking red industrial building stands at the intersection of North Augusta Road, showcasing bold horizontal panels and an intriguing architectural design. The vibrant red facade contrasts with the muted tones of a cloudy winter sky and traces of snow along the street. The industrial backdrop of vents and towers hints at the area’s purpose, adding character to the urban environment. This photograph, created by Duncan Rawlinson, captures the interplay of architecture and functionality in a unique urban setting.

Pillars of Praxis

Embodiments of strength and valor, these warriors project the might and determination that safeguard the aspirational ethos of Praxis. https://Duncan.co/pillars-of-praxis

Cloaked in the minimalistic elegance of their sacred space, these ascetic figures radiate stillness and wisdom, channeling the transcendent ideals of Praxis. https://Duncan.co/pillars-of-praxis

Arrayed in finery and girth, these figures of affluence stand as the robust pillars of trade and commerce in the envisioned splendor of Praxis. https://Duncan.co/pillars-of-praxis

As the sun graces its skyline, the City of Praxis stands as a testament to utopian innovation, melding sustainability with the bold dreams of its founders. https://Duncan.co/pillars-of-praxis

“Pillars of Praxis” by Duncan Rawlinson is a photographic journey that weaves through the concept of a utopian society with artistry and wit. In the face of critical articles from outlets like the NYT and the Daily Mail, which aimed to cast shadows on Dryden Brown’s ambitious Praxis project, this series instead shines a light on the foundational characters with a sense of admiration and irony. The attempt by the press to diminish Praxis only amplified intrigue (Streisand Effect) and turned scrutiny into fascination. Through Rawlinson’s lens, each pillar—merchant, priest, warrior—is depicted with an underlying narrative of resilience against skepticism, inviting onlookers to discover a cryptostate that stands defiant in the wake of attempted disparagement, emerging not weakened, but emboldened and antifragile in the public eye.
