Rebecca Litchfield, based in England, is a urban photographer with a great eye for light and composition. Unusual images taken in unusual places, where transience is obvious, former beauty is insinuated and decadence is clearly depicted. This is what Rebecca specialises in as she moves about the urban photography scene. On her travels, she finds places and locations that aren’t just ruins or abandoned buildings; often you get the impression that the residents have not long left the place. This gives her pictures an air of mystery, making them almost mystical and magical.
“I have always found considerable aesthetic beauty in things decayed, the objects that remain, but may soon disappear forever. They tell a story of a long and interesting past like artifacts in a museum. Some people travel to the ruins of Rome, the crumbling Colosseum, others to Peru to see the enchanting ruins of the Machu Picchu. These majestic and culturally important places are slowly crumbling with time and one day will disappear from humanity in their entirety.”
