Bonneterie du Parc

April 2013

As a dark place, creepy and a little scary, Bonneterie du Parc (“Hosiery of the park”) is one of the best in that kind.
Spreading its workshops on a beautiful surface, the family factory will employ up to 600 workers at its peak in the 60s. Then, as in too many cases, it'll fail. We are then in 2001.

Twelve years were needed to transform the plant into a dump and victim for morons. Fire all sides, walls attacked with iron bar, tagged (but not too much) and a landfill in the middle of the yard. Sad...
But there are still a few qualities in this place.
Already, it makes uncomfortable. I do not know why, but I was released on leaving. Long exposures were never as long and 20 seconds have appeared like an eternity. During this short time, all the senses on the alert ! It's stressful but I enjoy.
Then some industrial vestiges remain but it wasn't easy to find.
Finally, large volumes that I like.
