Abandoned Heritage



This project started back in January 2006, with the simple goal of capturing Malaysia's fast disappearing (pre WW2) built heritage. For me, I love the history of these old buildings, the found objects within them and all the stories it can tell.

It's a sad fact that so many of these amazing structures in their vast array of different architectural styles, are largely not seen as anything worth saving. Many of these locations are merely left vacant or abandoned and can ultimately end up being demolished.

For my work, it really has become a race against time to track these old buildings down now, before they completely disappear from memory and landscape.
