Stark, haunting and barren – let an American icon, the Ghost Town, inspire your art quilts
These photographs speak for themselves. The people who lived, worked, loved and died in these lost towns are silent.
Through the lens of talented photographers, the emotive, elegiac beauty is captured. Let youself be moved, then stirred to action by these powerful images of another time and place.
