DOG OF DERELICTION

Dust tumbles from the caved ceilings. Ivy crawls under the shattered window, and perched on a bedraggled sofa sits a captivating bull terrier by the name of Claire. Her owner, Alice van Kempen, is a Dutch photographer with an enthusiasm for urban exploration, also known as Urbex. With Claire in tow, van Kempen discovers abandoned, eerie spaces, reclaimed by nature, from all over the world from Germany to Portugal to France. The photographer likes to maintain some light amidst the shadows, and it’s compiled with humour and heart into this awe-worthy book.
