 Vanishing Bangkok  by Ben Davies

 

Bangkok’s rapidly changing landscape is the subject of a stunning black and white photographic book and exhibition by veteran British photographer and writer Ben Davies called ‘Vanishing Bangkok: The Changing Face of the City.’

Shot over the past five years on a large format Linhof film camera, the photographs capture the city’s fragile beauty, its rich heritage and faded charm which may be about to disappear forever beneath a tidal wave of urban development. From exquisite images of the Old Customs House on the banks of the Chao Phraya River to the teeming alleyways of Chinatown, sleepy canals and dilapidated buildings shrouded in antiquity, they evoke the extraordinary history and diversity of this great city.

For Davies, who has lived and worked in Asia for 30 years, this project was a unique opportunity to document a side of the Thai capital that many people are unfamiliar with. “I wanted to open people’s eyes to an aspect of the city that perhaps they never knew,” Davies writes. “I wanted to capture the magic of this older Bangkok before it vanishes forever.”
