Kevin Morris is an emerging photographer from Toronto, Ontario. He has traveled extensively over the last six years exploring diverse landscapes, people, and cultures ranging from urban city centers in North America to rural farmlands in mainland China. His images have been published in leading magazines & for corporate commissions in North America.
 
Kevin’s body of work “Imperial Age” brings to light the growing challenges found in Toronto’s stock of aging concrete towers. Built during the 1960s and 1970s, these once prestigious residences are increasingly slipping through the cracks of Toronto’s otherwise evolving social fabric.
 
Profiling the area north of St. Clair Avenue between Avenue Road and Yonge Street, “Imperial Age” provides a snapshot of tower life in the neighbourhood that is Deer Park; once full of the promise and
opportunity which came with the rise of big oil, a ‘Mad Men’-like lifestyle, and an exclusive uptown community.
 
This project was inspired by the work of E.R.A. Architects, former Mayor David Miller, and the University of Toronto on Mayor’s Tower Renewal.
