THE STORY BEHIND…
Not so clear at a first glance what is going on in this photograph. Let us give you a bit of background knowledge. It was shot in a former coal mine that was famous for its large hall of birdcages, known as Kaue. That explains it! Imagine what it would have been like to have had all of these cages filled with canaries… A noisy, messy scene if you ask us. The baskets would also have been used to store away the miners’ personal belongings – that’s one way of cleaning up a mess!
Astrid’s eighteen part photography series as part of The Awesome collection tracks her urban exploration of abandoned buildings across Europe.

Astrid Boers (1985, The Netherlands) is a 30 year old photographer come intrepid explorer residing in Leerdam. (No, no arctic explorations to see here but she has completed some pretty thrill-seeking and dangerous missions in her time…)
