For several years now, the Photographer and Musician MGness has specialized in capturing the fascination of abandoned (sub-)urban spaces with their aging charm and glamour of forgotten times. In pursuit of the perfect moment and light, he has travelled thousands of kilometers and crossed numerous borders to seek out these untouched treasures.
