splendour in the city

Sydney's hidden splendours will be on show tonight as Lisa Zhu and Side Street Sydney present a photographic exhibition showcasing the city's often-overlooked beauty.

Zhu's images explore the diversity of the city landscape, focusing on the details that we take for granted. The photographs compel viewers to take a deeper look at the city around us where rooftops, worn facades and window boxes offer a more subtle view of the city's beauty.

The exhibition will kick off with a launch party tonight at the Stairwell Gallery, Kings Cross, and will be on until August 19th. www.sidestreetsydney.com.au
