The day has finally come! Today I put up my installation work and I was very pleased with how my project turned out.
I included over 100 images from all three areas photographed, the found photograph from the second visit to the factory complex and I also scattered around general dirt, rubble, rocks and dust and also glass shards within these photos as this is generally what the floors of all the factories looked like. The glass reflected nicely off the spotlight above my piece.
Overall, I am very pleased with the work I presented.
Shadows Of Abandonment
By Noelle Jackson
Hidden amongst the suburbs, you can find abandoned buildings and structures. These neglected, derelict places tell many stories and hold many secrets.
Every abandoned building is a gallery, every wall a canvas.
This installation explores the connection between man made structures and collapse. The ample nature of this piece allows for multiple levels of manipulation, viewing and understanding. A lack of human presence within buildings and structures creates human exploration, destruction, creation and connection.
I drew inspiration for this work from artists Kazuko Miyamoto and Artie Vierkant and the #Urbex community.
