Being the morose little soul that i am I went wandering around an abandoned hospital today. The hospital shut in 2001.
it was weird walking around these buildings as I had been in so many of them when the hospital was operational and had crutches just like the ones in the photo when i smashed my knee!!
Anyhow im going back next week for an official guided tour of the hospital. Im going to be carrying on my project of site specific art in abandoned and disused spaces here through a set of photographs of ghosts of paitients past. And photographs depicting peoples memories and stories from the site. If you have any stories or anecdotes please let me know!
The best story so far is the one where they lost a corpse in the snow on the way too the mortuary but im not too sure how to make that into a photo!!!
anyhow here we go with todays images:
and thats all for today folks!!!
