Even the carts remember what we left behind.

A lone shopping cart stands motionless at the center of an abandoned and waterlogged department store. The scene is bathed in an eerie, diffused light that filters down through holes in the decaying ceiling, where plastic sheets and debris dangle like tattered curtains. The floor is slick with shallow water, reflecting the shopping cart and the surrounding wreckage in ghostly symmetry. Piles of plastic bags, shredded insulation, and unidentifiable refuse line the aisles, suggesting long-forgotten commerce and abandonment. On the right side, faint golden lights flicker behind translucent barriers, hinting at remnants of human presence or distant energy. The air appears thick with mist or smoke, enhancing the atmosphere of abandonment and decay. Everything feels frozen in time — a retail mausoleum echoing the memory of consumerism's collapse.
