Architectural photography - inspiration for montaging/presentation

In the continuing presentation research, of particular interest is simple montaging which transforms an image and, because this series is on architectural photography, focuses on the form on the image and intersecting lines.  

 The current photographer of interest in this matter is Katerina Drzková's 'Landscapes' series, where a single image is cut into a triangle and repeated to create a square. This results in an abstract, almost painterly effect.




As an early experimentation, the below montage was taken in the courtyard of Guildhall, Leicester. The centre of the montage somewhat demonstrates the same kind of abstraction created in Drzková's montage, though another shoot has been done with more of the ground showing. Once those have been edited, I'm going to see how it looks in this style of presentation.
