Life after Anthropo-Centre 42: A photo essay

It was with a heavy heart when we closed the gates of 42 Waterloo Street on 6 Apr 2020. And with the impending renovations delayed, the blue bungalow sat empty for several months.

When we re-entered the premises exactly four months later for a giveaway of the stuff we would no longer need, we were greeted by a house that was being reclaimed by Nature. This series of images capture a time when 42 Waterloo Street sat devoid of human activity. As the world around it ground to a halt, life continued to grow in the blue house.
