Mors tua vita mea (Your death is my life)

I am always fascinated when, in my photographic explorations of abandoned places, I find situations in which the vegetation takes back its stolen spaces. There is a deep inverse relationship between the time that flows slowly and inexorably in forgotten buildings destined to oblivion, and the almost imperceptible but inexorable advance of the vegetation that takes back these abandoned places, returning to new life. The death of a place turns into the flourishing of nature, and as the ancient Romans said in latin..."Mors tua vita mea!"

Bio
Christian Basetti from Milan. Since 2015, he has been passionate about ancient decadent places, giving voice to these structures full of melancholy charm as if they were silent narcissistic creatures waiting for someone to express their greatness. Inspired by Caravaggio, he's creator of Forgotten Art-chitectures project, decayed places are not shot just with an usual limited documentary aspect, as many others do, but they are like painted fine art canvas aimed at aesthetics.
