This photo series looks at the brutalist architecture of Brazil's capital Brasília, using infrared photography to capture it in a unique way. Oscar Niemeyer was a key figure in the development of Brasília. He worked closely with urban planner Lúcio Costa to design the city's iconic buildings, including Brasília Cathedral and the National Congress. Infrared photography captures images using infrared light, which is invisible to the human eye but can be detected by special camera sensors or film.
