A peeling backrest stands before bright windows amid fallen plaster, loose boards and damaged furniture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn my 2021 road trip across Canada, I often left the highways to follow rural farm roads. In Saskatchewan, a solitary wooden building standing well back from the road caught my attention. I went to investigate and found this abandoned schoolhouse. Inside, the floorboards shifted and groaned beneath my boots as I moved carefully through the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe battered chair became the anchor of this photograph. Its peeling backrest rises in front of the windows, while the broken seat and narrow legs remain visible among the wreckage. I am drawn to that recognizable everyday shape within an interior where so much has fallen apart. The chair gives the surrounding disorder a point of reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBehind it, a damaged bed frame and tangled springs stretch across the room. Loose boards angle through the scene, with cracked plaster scattered over the floor. A tall wooden cabinet remains on the right, its upper decorative edge contrasting with the broken pieces below. Exposed lath and worn window frames add still more layers of texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two windows admit bright light, leaving the outside view almost featureless. Within the room, that light reveals rough surfaces and separates the chair from the darker objects behind it. I chose black and white to bring the different materials together through tone while preserving their individual detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat stays with me is the closeness of these ordinary remnants. The room holds recognizable furniture, yet its arrangement has been transformed by decay. This vertical photograph offers a detailed view of a forgotten Saskatchewan interior, with the chair and windows giving a quiet structure to the broken surfaces around them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e© Dan Kosmayer, 2021\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dan Kosmayer Photography","offers":[{"title":"5 × 7 inches (12.7 × 17.8 cm)","offer_id":50571343757391,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 × 8 inches (15.2 × 20.3 cm)","offer_id":67592452735055,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 × 10 inches (20.3 × 25.4 cm)","offer_id":40739642081359,"sku":null,"price":34.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 × 12 inches (20.3 × 30.5 cm)","offer_id":67593198895183,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11 × 14 inches (27.9 × 35.6 cm)","offer_id":40739642114127,"sku":null,"price":42.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11 × 17 inches (27.9 × 43.2 cm)","offer_id":67594001219663,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 × 16 inches (30.5 × 40.6 cm)","offer_id":40739642146895,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 × 18 inches (30.5 × 45.7 cm)","offer_id":67594793091151,"sku":null,"price":56.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 × 20 inches (40.6 × 50.8 cm)","offer_id":40739642179663,"sku":null,"price":63.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 × 24 inches (40.6 × 61.0 cm)","offer_id":67595664326735,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18 × 24 inches (45.7 × 61.0 cm)","offer_id":40739642212431,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 × 28 inches (50.8 × 71.1 cm)","offer_id":67600657350735,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24 × 36 inches (61.0 × 91.4 cm)","offer_id":41185710637135,"sku":"","price":105.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"28 × 40 inches (71.1 × 101.6 cm)","offer_id":67597118373967,"sku":null,"price":115.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 × 40 inches (76.2 × 101.6 cm)","offer_id":41185762148431,"sku":"","price":125.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A3 (29.7 × 42.0 cm)","offer_id":43805489102927,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A2 (42.0 × 59.4 cm)","offer_id":43804795764815,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A1 (59.4 × 84.1 cm)","offer_id":43804854222927,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A0 (84.1 x 118.9 cm)","offer_id":67747696836687,"sku":null,"price":139.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/9685\/2047\/files\/Saskatchewan-Abandoned-Schoolhouse-Chair-Black-and-White-Interior-Photography-1.jpg?v=1792891265","url":"https:\/\/dinkosmayer.com\/products\/canada-saskatchewan-rural-abandoned-schoolhouse-interior-black-and-white","provider":"Dan Kosmayer Fine Art Photography","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
