Jonk is one of the most renowned photographers of abandoned places in the world. For the past ten years, he has traveled across the globe in search of them. Through the practice of urban exploration (urbex), he seeks to capture their slow transformation before they disappear. The impact of time passing is the central theme of this book. This pursuit of cracked walls, rusted metal, and peeling paint has led him to more than ffty countries. Today, Jonk presents the very best of his urban explorations.

Jonk est l’un des photographes de lieux abandonnés les plus reconnus au monde. Depuis dix ans, il parcourt la planète à leur recherche. À travers cette pratique de l’urbex, il cherche à montrer leur lente transformation avant la disparition. L’impact du temps qui passe est le fl rouge de ce livre. Cette quête de murs fssurés, de fer rouillé, de peinture écaillée l’a mené dans plus de cinquante pays. Aujourd’hui, Jonk nous livre le meilleur de ses explorations urbaines.
