Models of Broken Houses by Ofra Lapid

Inspired by photos of decaying houses which Israeli artist Ofra Lapid found on the Internet, Lapid created a series of incredible detailed small scale models of these abandoned homes.
I’m not entirely sure, but it seems like Lapid printed the pictures on paper/cardboard before shaping them into houses.
The series Broken houses is based on photographs of abandoned structures neglected by man and destroyed by the weather. The photos are found in the web while pursuing an amateur photographer from North Dakota who obsessively documents the decaying process of these houses. His photographs are used to create small scale models. Afterward, in the studio, the models are photographed again, omitted from their background and placed in gray.
