Series: Trope Emerging Photographers

Award-winning photographer Tobi Shonibare - Tobi Shinobi to his followers - pushes the boundaries of symmetry and balance in his first book, Equilibrium. From his native London to his current Chicago home, and in far-flung locales around the world, Tobi's photographs explore and deconstruct architecture and nature until they appear as optical illusions. His vertigo-inducing perspectives turn familiar vistas into abstractions, reality into a fantasyland of line and shape. More than 164,000 followers on Instagram experience Tobi's obsessive attention to detail and fascination with the geometry of our world.

Reviews for Tobi Shinobi: Equilibrium: Equilibrium

Books like this one are rare because they do more than give the viewer a consolidated collection of stunning images. . . . Having glimpsed the world through Shinobi's lens, you begin to see your own surroundings more graphically. - Sony Alpha Universe
