Economic crisis changed a mall (that is not far from Rome) in a spectral place. The emptiness of today tells us about our daily life: we are but consumers and these series of shops our cathedrals. Deserted Mall is a project about money as a religion and about our future as human beeings. These photos are a kind of snapshots of the past
I remember this square full of people. Now it is a ghostly place. Economic crisis has moved elsewhere the grasshoppers
Empty shop with reflections of empty ways
This poster has been ruined by sun, weather and carelessness. The shop is closed, who cares about the name of this champion?
This poster has also been ruined by sun, weather and carelessness. It is a twin of the previous one. It changes the sport not the destiny
Nature lives in the reflections of this empty shop. No sign about man
This was a shoe store. There is nothing left in the showcase, No one left to sell or buy. The window became a mirror of the crisis
