-This pictures from 1993-94 derive from a project with photographs of abandoned buildings/monuments with connection to the mining industry in the middle of Sweden.

Of many reasons i´m happy to invite Olle Norling and to show his photography again. First, i simply love these photographs and secondly i have a deep interest in abandon placeses my self.

  1. I have seen some of these places too
    in Bergslagen
    Truly fascinating places telling us the history of the industralization of Sweden
    I like that you have made straight pictures - no false sentimentality
    as seen sometimes when this subject
    is photographed
