中文简介：

日本废弃地点的美丽而令人难忘的照片。日本通常被认为是现代世界和古代传统以令人惊讶和迷人的方式相遇的地方。整个 20 世纪技术、社会和文化的快速变革推动了国家向前发展，但也导致无数机构、工业和整个城镇荒废。 Jordy Meow 通过他的摄影探索了这些被遗忘的地方，并揭示了一个几十年前还欣欣向荣的失落世界。废弃的日本记录了着茗的废墟（日语中的“haikyo”），例如邦德电影《007：天幕杀机》中的军舰岛，该岛曾经拥有 5,000 多人口，但现在已完全废弃，还有迪士尼乐园风格的奈良梦幻主题公园。除了这些着茗的景点之外，Jordy Meow 还带我们踏上了一段快速消失的过去的方方面面的旅程：从学校和医院到工业场所和夜生活，包括脱衣舞俱乐部和情人酒店。这里拍摄的废墟有古雅宁静的，也有黑暗噩梦般的。有些的气氛让人想起吉卜力工作室的动画电影，而另一些则看起来几乎是反乌托邦。这些地方表明，人们可以在环境中留下持久的印记，但只要有机会，大自然就会回归原路。

英文简介：

Beautiful, haunting photographs of abandoned places in Japan. Japan is often thought of as a place where the modern world and ancient traditions meet in surprising and fascinating ways. The rapid pace of technological, social and cultural change throughout the 20th century propelled the country forward but left countless establishments, industries and entire towns deserted. Through his photography Jordy Meow explores these forgotten places and sheds light on a lost world that was thriving just a few decades ago. Abandoned Japan documents famed ruins (haikyo in Japanese) such as Gunkanjima, the island featured in the Bond movie Skyfall, which once had a population of over 5,000 but is now completely abandoned, and the Disneyland-inspired Nara Dreamland theme park. Beyond these well-known sites, Jordy Meow also takes us on a journey through every aspect of a rapidly disappearing past: from schools and hospitals to industrial sites and nightlife, including strip clubs and love hotels. The ruins captured here range from the quaint and serene to the dark and nightmarish. Some have an atmosphere reminiscent of the animation films of Studio Ghibli while others seem almost dystopian. These places show that people can leave a lasting mark on their environment but, given the chance, nature finds its way back.
