The Decaying City

The “Decaying City” series is an ongoing self-project. In the heart of a decaying city, the streets were a labyrinth of architectural wonders, a testament to the fusion of different cultures and traditions, stacked upon the other, reaching for the heavens. The lofty souls dance among the stars, while resilient hearts find solace in humble abodes. After all, our fates were entwined, what makes the difference when we share the same cloak of night?
