Geography as Archive

This section gathers abandoned places through geography rather than chronology. Each region forms a coherent group shaped by shared patterns of labor, infrastructure, and withdrawal. The places are presented without route or instruction, readable through material, silence, and continuity in absence.

Fragmenta Abandoned Places Archive

Fragmenta is a visual archive dedicated to abandoned places, urban exploration and forgotten objects from the past. Through high resolution photography series, the project documents abandoned industrial buildings, underground tunnels, deserted hospitals and forgotten factories located in Montreal, across Canada and around the world.

Each location featured on Fragmenta combines urbex photography, historical research and visual documentation to preserve the memory of these spaces before they disappear. The photo archives explore forgotten architecture, industrial ruins and the traces left by time inside these abandoned places.

Fragmenta also presents a curated selection of historical artifacts, antiques and rare objects connected to these explorations. Each piece becomes a tangible fragment of the past, transforming urban exploration into a living archive of industrial and cultural heritage.
