back to Chile 2014 main pageUniversidad del Mar was a university whose headquarters are a ten minute walk from where I live in Renaca, Vina del Mar. It shut down due to student protests over financial and accreditation anomalies (read more here).
I’ve always loved photographing spooky abandoned places (see my series on Taiwan’s UFO Pod Houses here- Sanzhi and Wanli).
Chairs were stacked high on stairs, creating a makeshift barricade. Some areas had nothing to barricade but still had a bunch of chairs stacked and tied up together like a failed contemporary art installation.
It looked surprisingly bright and cheery inside as I went during daytime. Someone has since made a temporary fence around the compound.
