Here is the story of Jonk, a French photographer from Paris, who travels all over Europe to find abandoned places. In these forgotten schools, churches, castles, theaters he finds unique atmospheres, where the passage of time, urban decay, and often even the nature that takes back its rights, creates poetry and a very particular soul. These interesting photos narrate the memory of these beautiful places, the moment where an activity stopped, where a destiny tumbled. They tell a unique experience: the one of time.

Most of these abandoned buildings are private properties, with complicated and often dangerous access in which the conditions for urban exploration and taking pictures are often difficult. For two years, he roamed through England, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Germany, Czech Republic, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Italy, Switzerland, and Ukraine taking pictures of these abandoned houses.
