There’s only one road in to Yellowknife, highway 3, and I suspect it’s a one-way trip for most vehicles. There appears to be abandoned cars around every corner, yet somehow they don’t look ugly.
I’m kind of indifferent about cars, for me they’re just a means of getting from A to B, but during a 3 week stay in Yellowknife last September I managed to photograph more than 50 of them. Most of the vehicles look dead and some of them look as though they should be dead, to be honest. I think most Yellowknifers share my sentiment, when it comes to cars.
All the images were made using a Mamiya 7II, 80mm lens and Fuji Pro 400H film.
