Anthony Sala, born September 11, 1996 in Lyon, France. I learned photography on my own, in the field. An explorer since 2016, I frequently travel the roads of France and Europe in search of forgotten heritage. My aim is to offer the general public photographs of a heritage abandoned by man, where nature is gradually reclaiming its rights. I love architecture and the details brought about by decay, mold and abandonment. It's also about keeping a trace of abandoned heritage. These are unique places that will disappear forever!

My equipment: Sony A7 camera Samyang 14mm lens Sony 28-70mm lens.

Countries visited on my photographic adventures: France, Italy, Portugal, Georgia and Armenia. I hope to visit other countries in the future to continue photographing the modern vestiges of abandonment. It's part of our heritage, our culture, our history. Keeping a trace of it and showing it to as many people as possible has been my duty since I started.

A few years ago, I put together a series of photos of abandoned places of worship in France and Italy. Buildings with impressive architecture, often present for decades, reign over our Earth. Their interiors are a veritable architectural spectacle, full of details, paintings and, above all, emotions frozen in time. For some places, the time has come for nature to reclaim its rights, creating ground vegetation, cracks and mould all over the buildings. This is the tragic end of these places, once gathering places, which no longer attract anyone...
