The Beauty of Flooded Architecture

Imagine the sea rising above the worlds most breathtaking architecture: our cathedrals, our museums that hold our masterpieces from centuries ago, being destroyed with the rage of crashing waves. Imagine the ocean flooding an entire opera house or a swamped ballroom with delicate Swarvoski chandeliers dangling above the water. Spanish artist Pablo Genovés uses a collage style mixed with digital photography to give us a different perspective on an apocalyptic future. It makes one consider the fact that our art and our architecture is fragile – regardless of our intentions and actions to preserve the past. You can view more of Genovés creations on his website and in exhibitions around Europe and the U.S.
