THE STORY BEHIND…

Yep, that is one big hall you got that right Astrid. It is taken in an abandoned cookie factory. We can’t help but conjure up some sort of Willy Wonka image in our minds, with little oompa loompas plodding around creating their latest concoctions. The curvature of the ceiling almost traps us under its wave shaped roof, where the patterns of light are similar to the shimmers of a wave. So calm and so empty, it does seem pretty serene now that everything has gone.

Astrid’s eighteen part photography series as part of The Awesome collection tracks her urban exploration of abandoned buildings across Europe.
