Hi All,
Last Friday was a very special photo occasion. Together with
the Urban Photo Collective I had the opportunity to visit an old jailhouse. The
building, just recently abandoned, situated in Rotterdam opened its gates and
we were free to go in and make our pictures. All the rooms in the building
that were not locked were free to be entered and make our pictures. Only a few
doors kept locked mainly because of security or safety reasons. However I had
the time of my life, as how often do you get the chance to walk free throughout a
jailhouse.
I stayed in for a few hours to make my pictures and
honoustly I must admit I really was glad I could get out again. Walking through
the building and watching all those doors, locks, long corridors and smelling
the dank air I found it a very depressive environment and I do not envy those who
are kept there for sometimes many years.
Anyway the serie of pictures I present at my site should
give you an impression of what to see and to undergo when you have to go
in……
Usually I end my story by saying Enjoy or Have Fun, but I am not sure if
that is the right expression in this case.
This time you have to find out all by yourself,
Arjan
