Future Estate

Matthew Harvey’s ‘Future Estate’ is a long-term artistic research project documenting the spatial and organisational processes of commodity production, the geopolitics of development, and the zoning practices, extractions, and transnational investments that shape the material and social environments of the precarious present. Drawn to disorganised, peripheral, and contingent contexts, Harvey attempts to navigate a possible set of coordinates to follow the flow of production networks and infrastructural throughlines. As the uneven processes of global labour and distribution play out, his photographs move between subtle and transcendental moments.
