The rear of Kuwashima Orthopaedic Clinic reveals forgotten service entrances. Overgrown foliage reclaims concrete walls. Rust stains mark the once-functional exterior. This view captures the slow decay of a vital community building.

About this print
To the left, the remains of the rehabilitation ward are barely holding together. The walls have rotted away, exposing the skeletal frame to the elements. Beneath it, an abandoned car and truck sit motionless, as if waiting for a journey that will never come.

The series
Kuwashima Hospital
Kuwashima Hospital sits in Yubari, on the island of Hokkaido in northern Japan. The town's population peaked above one hundred thousand in the 1960s and has since fallen below seven thousand. The hospital is abandoned.
