Derelict places (Small)
I like to visit places where decay has set in years ago. Factories that have been abandoned for decades, buildings that are about to be demolished, places that are in fact non-existent, because they lost their function ages ago. I like to go there with my camera and use the resulting photos to make new paintings in my studio.
dated 2019 until 2026
