Marnie Salsky’s Don Valley Brick Works series
examines the
present state of disrepair of this historic
location. The
abandoned site leaves one with an impression of
emptiness,
loss and isolation. It has silent echoes of time
gone past. The
presence of today is found upon closer
examination; the graffiti
within the abandoned buildings illustrates an
urban environment
that continues to thrive and grow in its community
spirit.
