The World Without Us | Romain Veillon

What would happen if mankind were to suddenly disappear off the face of the earth? This question has fascinated humanity since the dawn of time, triggering the imagination of many to suggest countless answers as society perpetually changes and evolves. In The World Without Us, Veillon explores the thin line between the world we live in today, and the possibilities of what might occur tomorrow. In an aesthetic and graphic manner, his photographs present a scenario wherein Mother Nature reclaims her heritage serving as some kind of memento mori; “this is what the planet could look like if we continue not caring for the environment that surrounds us.” The scenes are empty of people, but their presence remains tangible.
