Totally Lost is an open and ongoing project curated by Spazi Indecisi for European Cultural Route ATRIUM. It’s a research that maps the remains of the architectural heritage of Totalitarian Regimes in Europe through photography and video and a visual tale that explores these architectural spaces as fragments to be reconnected as democratic places.
Totally Lost investigates the relationship of these totalitarian objects with the landscape and the relationship with today’s social context, collecting and bringing to light very diverse places that lies neglected all throughout Europe: factories, mines, power stations, homes, places of propaganda and power, bunkers, resorts, radar antennas, monuments and memorials, planned communities, entertainment venues, sanatoriums, hospitals and much more.
I sent photos from few locations to this project and my Linnahall (City Hall) series was published in their exhibition and also on their website. Pretty cool that the old Soviet era architecture is still appreciated and that I was able to contribute in this project. Check for more photos of Linnahall below.

In 2020 a graphic designer contacted me and said that she was inspired by my photo of Linnahall and she asked for a permission to use that photo in her design. Unfortunately I missed my chance to forward her the photo, but check out the design she created nevertheless.
