這是一組由攝影家Ben Canales所拍攝的作品,他自述被遺棄的房子,猶如死亡後未經掩埋的屍體,他不禁要問,是誰建造了這些房子,他們計畫要在這裡做什麼?以及他們他們住在這裡過著什麼樣的生活?這一組照片,充滿著蒼涼的感覺。
While out exploring places far from city light pollution, I occasionally come across houses, farms, structures that have long been abandoned.
It’s fascinating to me the beauty these places can still hold while slowly falling to pieces.
I get nostalgic and imaginative wondering who built it. What plans did they have, what lives did they live in these places?
In its current state, it is a hazard. Many would call it a failure. A body, dead, but unburied- bones and skeletons still standing. The wallpaper is gone, the windows are usually broken long ago, roofs caved in sometimes, stairs collapsed- but every one of those elements was once purposefully and carefully put there, piece by piece until a house was made.
