“This series presents a dystopian vision of a near future, where all traces of humanity and nature have vanished following what appears to be an environmental catastrophe. Through the lens of a lone, anonymous outsider, we traverse a ghostly world frozen in time. Factories stand abandoned, their presence still etched into the landscape, hinting at the irreversible impact they’ve had on the environment.

Using redscale, an intertwined film technique, the images take on a surreal, hostile atmosphere—alien, yet disturbingly familiar. Though the setting might appear fictional, it is a real location where communities continue to live amidst industrial ruins and toxic surroundings.

This work explores the tension between what has been lost and what stubbornly remains. The vestiges of industry, the absence of life, and the eerily quiet spaces all speak to histories hidden in plain sight. In this way, the series offers a speculative yet grounded reflection on environmental neglect, urban memory, and the overlooked remnants that define our present and hint at our future.”
