Gentaro Ishizuka: Gold Rush Alaska

Gold Rush Alaska is Gentaro Ishizuka’s (born 1977) documentation of the melancholy remnants of Alaska’s gold rush of the late 19th century. His photos of rusted shovels and machinery, dilapidated log huts dwarfed by the landscape, and eerie interiors and still lifes show the ghosts of human activity and how nature is slowly reclaiming her territory.
