Los Angeles-based photographer Sinziana Velicescu (previously reported here) has captured a series documenting seemingly impossible moments in the American landscape. Velisescu explores the subtle tension between architecture and the natural environment, often focusing on in-between spaces shaped by time. Velicescu’s careful compositions use an architectural vocabulary to tell the story of the place. In American Phantom, she uncovers the architectural fragments and neglected spaces of a country where the lines between real and unreal are becoming increasingly blurred. Draw inspiration from the work of Italo Calvino invisible cityThe images explore how places simultaneously retain traces of different eras, suspended between what was promised and what is left behind.
