There is a mysterious world of which almost nobody knows it exists. A fascinating world, where time has stopped. Where mankind has withdrawn and nature slowly gains ground. Loneliness and desolation play a leading role.

This world is hidden behind 'trespassing' signs. These are very photogenic places that are worth to be immortalized. Since 2008 I photograph ‘the beauty of decay’.

I try to capture the atmosphere of those places. I enter sites where no one cares for anymore and try to tell their story with my pictures. It is a combination of curiosity, excitement, naughtiness or devilment.

I explore churches, factories, mortuaries, sanatoriums, villas or theaters... All those abandoned buildings that are quietly waiting for renovation or demolition offer my plenty of beautiful photo opportunities. Especially when time and nature leaves its traces. Rust on the ironwork, peeled paint on the walls, broken glass and tiles, moss growing on concrete…

Hooray for decay!
