Explore the not-so-distant past through the eyes of The Shadow Collective. Our members present studies in urban decay, documenting the final chapter in the story of spaces long forgotten. Join us as we explore the creeping shadows of modern-day ruins and illuminate the secret corners of once-vital spaces that now lie empty. On our journey we hear only echoes of the past - children's voices in a crumbling orphanage; the chatter of workers in the remains of a factory; the clang of a streetcar decades after it's last run. These stark yet evocative images bear witness to yesterday's world, of structures built, used and forgotten. They speak for the voices that have now fallen silent.
