Angels of The North
de TJ Blackwell
Angels of The North TJ Blackwell pdf english - This photographic portfolio illustrates industrial abandonment in northern England. "Urbex" is the examination of normally unseen or off-limits parts of urban areas or industrial facilities. Many of these abandoned sites are destined to be torn down or renovated into sterile new commercial properties - in such cases, a photographic record can serve as a building’s last witness.
The activity gives you a sense of the brief and transient nature of each generation's time on this earth and the fading marks of forgotten heritage which they leave behind. Northern England has a particularly rich architectural heritage - I have been privileged (and perhaps intrepid) enough to have documented some of these gems before they disappear forever.
These buildings are part of our story. They played host to thousands of peoples' working lives. And they deserve recognition, before the wrecking balls of modern construction crews move in to redevelop and seal their fate.
