empty tennis courts












from Giasco Bertoli - Tennis Courts.

"I started photographing empty tennis courts in
southern Switzerland in 1999, on the border of Italy.
The work came about by chance. Some time after I'd
moved to Paris, I was back in Switzerland, walking
in the woods near where I grew up and I came across
an abandoned tennis court. I photographed that one,
then courts around the neighborhood where I grew up,
and have continued to photograph deserted tennis
courts ever since."
