A patina of a ghostliness imbues all abandoned towns with the same melancholy ache; whether they be a stereotypical cowboy western town in the American west or a once-thriving port town in Belgium. Once inhabited, and now deserted and set to ruin, they inevitably foreshadow a post-apocalyptic future; or for the less dramatically inclined, they intimate some measure of failure. Photographer Virginia Mayo's exquisitely composed and lush black and white images capture the decay and destruction of Doel, a port town in Belgium with a dwindling population. The authorities want to raze Doel to rebuild it into something shiny, industrial, and new; but in the meantime, it's a ghost town inhabited by a few lonely souls who stubbornly refuse to leave or to take comfortable apartments elsewhere they are deeply rooted trees who will not be easily shifted to some other patch of earth. In English and Flemish.

Virginia Mayo's photographs are a beautifully haunting tribute to a small village slowly ebbing into the history of humanity within the nuclear age. The emptiness of the abandoned is tempered by the portraits of Emilienne, a lone inhabitant. The photographs speak of life clinging to life. Her text is lovely and poetic.
