-landscape as ruin-
During this past summer, working on a pavilion in downsville, we got well acquainted with some of the local residents. On our lunch break we would regularly go to the local gas station to eat. This place was the spot for regular locals to socialize and in so doing we had a few conservations with them and in the process found out about this beautiful ruin.

  1. this looks like something out of John Carpenter's Escape from New York, or the Evil Dead. this ruin seems to have been lost to time and discovering it again leaves all the possible things it could or might have been.

  2. it is fascinating to think what might have been there or who might have lived in that place. I guess at some point we take part from nature for creating buildings and when we leave the structures that are no longer occupied, nature takes over what it used to own. It seems to be a life cycle... of creation, destruction and recreation.
