A Brief But Spectacular take on vanishing rural structures
For more than two decades, Vermont-based photographer Jim Westphalen has documented old farmhouses, barns, churches and homes that have fallen into disrepair — he calls it “finding beauty in decay.” His works are collected in a book and film, both titled “Vanish: Disappearing Icons of a Rural America.” Westphalen shares his Brief But Spectacular take on the vanishing structures of rural America.
