With a keen interest in history
and architecture, this project started back in January 2006,
journeying through Malaysia and Singapore, tracking down
and photographing prewar (WW2) era locations that normally
laid unseen, ignored, or were perhaps totally off limits
to the normal person on the street. This slightly strange
hobby quickly evolved into a general documentary of our
built landscape in all its forms, dating from any period.
My primary focus however always revolves around documenting
derelict prewar buildings. Sadly there is a serious lack
of interest for built heritage in Malaysia, with many sites
left abandoned or already earmarked for demolition. With
not much hope for these places, the only thing left to do
is document them in photographs before they are lost forever.
