These outstanding photographic reports aim to draw attention to the often dramatic fate of a country’s abandoned heritage and its frequently forgotten beauty. The locations featured all have their own stories to tell, in a variety of voices, but with one shared theme: the fall from grace
From the old blast furnaces in the Liège Province, to an abandoned textile factory in West Flanders, the forgotten neo-Gothic marvels of Europe''s first stock exchange in Antwerp, an MiG stranded in the middle of a forest, and thermal baths that have been abandoned despite their UNESCO World Heritage status...
The buildings that Francis Meslet has immortalised hang between life and death and radiate a silence that speaks volumes. Through these photographs, which seem to tell us an invaluable secret, he immortalises the splendour and decadence of a nation blessed with one of the richest heritages in Europe. By emphasising the fragile beauty of this heritage, the photographer invites us to think about how we can protect it so that it continues to resonate with future generations.
