Statement for the Photo Series: Cemetery of Worn-out Cars
The photo series “Cemetery of Worn-out Cars” consists of 10 square-format frames that narrate untold stories of cars that once roamed busy highways. Each of these cars has journeyed through a period, marked trips for their owners, and captured memories. Now abandoned in the heart of the desert, these cars have fallen from their vibrant past.
The camera angle in these photos is from above the car hood, capturing the front windshield and hood in each frame, enhancing the sense of isolation and abandonment of these vehicles.
The series aims to capture the moments and emotions these cars have experienced over time. Once symbols of movement and progress, they now symbolize the passage of time and decay with their rusted bodies and mechanical failures.
Beyond showcasing a car cemetery, these photos delve into the concepts of time, change, and instability. Each frame holds a unique story—a tale of roads, journeys, and destinations that have reached their conclusion.
