ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Symmetry games in a mosque in Abu Dhabi. Favored by luck for the lack of even the slightest breeze, I was able to create a perfect mirror image. I spent all day at the mosque looking for the best light, but I had to wait until almost closing to no longer have the crowds of people around. Finally, the waiting for an Arab woman who passed in the center was the icing on the cake.

AUTHOR
Christian Basetti live in Milan, Italy .
Since 2015, he has been passionate about ancient decadent places, giving voice to these structures full of melancholy charm as if they were silent narcissistic creatures waiting for someone to express their greatness.
These places are often hidden and not easy to enter, it's not just a matter to catch the right light but even a challenge to discover them.
Creator of Forgotten Art-chitectures project, decayed places are not shot just with an usual limited documentary aspect, as many others do, but they are like fine art canvas aimed at aesthetics.
