Enemies of the Ordinary
Every month or so, Toronto’s lesser-seen underbelly comes alive when the Toronto Urban Explorers & Adventure Group (TUEAG) set out. This past February, a group of five wandered the beauty of Ward’s Island in the dead of winter. Since that initial outing, the group has grown to over 250 people.
They’ve been known to explore abandoned buildings within the city and venture out to ghosts towns long forgotten.
This Wednesday, September 14th, they show off their talent with The TUEAG Photographic Exhibit at The Charlotte Room.
Justification for a photo exhibit? As member Laurin puts it: “Seeing as UE is becoming more mainstream, we thought it might be time to take our hobby to the general public. There is more to UE than simply getting into places you are not supposed to be, it is about bringing the experience to others. Through photographs and words, we can tell others the stories of these forgotten places and show the beauty that can be found within these lonely spaces.”
