Jerzy Goliszewski + Ofra Lapid

I first came across Jerzy Goliszewski on Society6 (his society is here and his blog is here).

Jerzy is a Polish artist, based in Warsaw, who focuses on site-specific projects - something I've always inexplicably admired - I find it brave somehow. Quoting from his website, Jerzy "is most interested in complicated and complex structures. He strives to use simple and natural materials."
The end results are poignantly mystifying.

His blog showed me the beautiful work of Ofra Lapid who also has a blog, here.
Ofra builds models of these derelict buildings from photographs taken by an amateur photographer from North Dakota who obsessively documents the decaying process of these houses.

So graceful yet melancholic.
