This photo shows a detail from an abandoned boiler room, somewhere on the site of a former munitions factory. What immediately struck me was the raw industrial character of this place: the rusty pipes, weathered valves and frayed remains of insulation material form a fascinating interplay of structure, symmetry and decay.
The white, fluffy insulation contrasts sharply with the dark ironwork and brick wall, appearing almost organically alive. The limited light on the right side creates a dramatic play of shadow and texture, making the chaos even more tangible. I love this visual tension: the apparent order of the row of pipes and the wildness of the crumbling material.
This photograph is pure urbex: a search for beauty in forgotten places. No colour needed - black and white emphasises texture, contrast and mystery. This work invites the viewer to stand still, look, and get lost in the details.
In an interior, this picture brings an industrial, cool touch. Perfect for those who love urban vibes, rough textures, industrial architecture or symmetry with a twist.

Beyond urban exploring,  I’m passionate about..
