Hard Work
Work in the old days varied greatly depending on the era, geographical location, and the specific occupation. Throughout history, architecture and industry have served as representations of society, reflecting the values, aspirations, and technological advancements of their time. Similarly, abandoned engineering projects can also provide insights into the past, often showcasing the ambitions and challenges of their era.
A SENSE OF MYSTERY
Discover the beauty and historical intrigue of abandoned industry and engineering sites in the serie Hard Work. In my photography I capture the haunting industrial complexes and factories that have been left behind. They can reveal the once-thriving manufacturing sectors of a region. These sites may include old textile mills, steel plants, or coal mines, which were integral to the industrialization process. Their abandonment may signify shifts in economic priorities, technological advancements, or changes in global trade.

Some architectural projects, intended to be grand symbols of power or cultural achievements, were abandoned before completion. Examples include incomplete palaces, temples, or monuments that were abandoned due to political changes, lack of resources, or societal upheavals. These structures can serve as reminders of unrealized dreams or shifts in societal values.
