Wigo Worsseling

I am always on the lookout for abandoned and forgotten places. As an Urban Explorer, I am constantly searching for the beauty of decay and traces of history to capture them in all their facets.

For me, the mix of photography, excitement and adventure is what drives me. The places I visit are usually forgotten and left to nature, there is often no one left to look after them.

This unknown world of past glory has a great attraction for me. With my photographs, I want to take the viewer into this forgotten world so that they can fantasize and wonder what has happened there. Most of the locations are in the last phase of their existence and I see my visit as a kind of tribute.

I photograph only with natural light and multiple exposures, this is how I create the final photograph.

There is often much to see in my photographs and with the play of light and colors, a mysterious atmosphere is created where I want the viewer to look curiously and fascinated.
