Amyn Nasser’s Voyeur Nocturne is a photographic celebration of Vancouver better known as the “city of glass.” With its high population density relative to most other North American cities, urban planning in Vancouver is characterized by high-rise residential and mixed-use development in the city centre as an alternative to sprawl. Glass condominium towers dominate the skyline and have been credited in contributing to the city's highly ranked livability. Amyn Nasser has effectively captured this ‘feel’ unique to and defining of Vancouver where each layer symbolizes the excitement and vibrancy of city life. If windows are the eyes to the soul, can the same be said for the soul of a city?
Amyn Nasser's Voyeur Nocturne series of some 60 photographs resulted from a 10 month long project taking the photographer to different viewpoints across the city; many of the most spectacular shots are a product of careful planning and consideration. Reflections present both opportunity and challenge; windows aglow invite the viewer in. As evening comes and the lights go on, a routine scene quickly becomes something with character and mood.
"I really am drawn by the buildings and the light on them - some of them look like molten metals: gold, platinum, titanium. They have a real warmth about them, so even though they may be taken at a distance or are of city expanses, they seem to be inviting. I love the colours, shapes and intense light. I think what I like about the buildings is that a few of them really have the quality of an open fire. When you walk past a window in the evening and the light is on, it's the light that draws your eye; it's what you see that might make you stop and stare. It occurs to me then, that something which brings the voyeur and the nocturne (night-piece) together is light, or at least, something to break the depths of darkness, even if it is only a flicker." - Shamira A. Meghani, D. Philosophy

"Amyn believes in the photographer's magic - the ability to stir the soul with light and shape and colour. To create grand visual moments out of small and simple things, and to infuse big and complicated subjects with unpretentious elegance. He respects classic disciplines, is easy to work with, while at the same time insists on being fast, modern and wild." - Barry Anderson, Creative Intelligence Agency
