This photographic project deals with landscapes that have been completely altered and transformed by human activity into deserted, barren land, the large-scale aftermaths of an industrial age. While their awe resembles the beautifully carved canyons of World Heritage or America’s Wild West, these pieces of land have been degraded both ecologically and aesthetically, stripped off all kind of wildlife and habitation, ultimately defined by an ‘Industrial Ugliness’. From Chalkidiki to Ptolemais and from Thrace to Crete, they are all located in Greece and have been captured by Marinos Tsagkarakis in a photographic journey that lasted almost 2 years.
