About the artwork

The abandoned hospital room has a hauntingly serene atmosphere. The walls, painted in a combination of pale green and dark grey, exude a sense of faded elegance. The remains of the once bustling medical facility now stand still in time, bearing the marks of neglect and decay.

Each item seems purposefully placed, creating a harmonious but desolate tableau. There is a play of light and shadow, as soft rays of daylight seep in through partially covered windows and cast ethereal patterns on the worn linoleum floor.

The colour palette evokes a sense of nostalgia and bygone grandeur. Light green accents can be seen in the peeling wallpaper and remnants of upholstery on a weathered armchair in the corner. Muted tones of pale yellow and light green are scattered here and there, seen in cracked paint on the ceiling and remnants of curtains that once adorned the windows, now battered and fragile.

This urbex (urban exploration) discovery reveals a world of neglect and abandonment. The room stands as a silent witness to the progress of time and shows the beauty that comes from decay. The crumbling walls and peeling plaster reveal a glimpse of the mid-century, with hints of the past still lingering in the air.

As you explore the metaphysical interiors, a sense of introspection engulfs you. The room has a certain mystique and invites contemplation on the transience of human existence and the enduring essence of spaces left behind. The interplay of light and shadow, the flaking textures and the remnants of a forgotten era meld into a poignant story within this forgotten hospital room.
