Absence of Water

Gigi Cifali
Take a moment to browse into the portfolio of Gigi Cifali and check out the "Absence of Water" set of photos. Here's the gist:
In the Thirties United Kingdom lidos and baths were at the peak of their popularity. Gradually tastes have changed, resulting in a drop in attendances, leaving the pools uneconomical to run. Many fell into decay and many were demolished. Only a handful of pools remain today as a symbol of a bygone era.
Long story short - it's a set of photos capturing neglected, dilapidated public swimming areas that once were a serious social gathering area. Best viewed at their largest size possible.
