About

There are shards of red bricks scattered along the gravel road leading to the ruins of a deserted factory.

The broken tiles make a high clinking noise as the shards of broken tiles are crushed under your feet along the red brick road. The path leads to an abandoned brick and tile factory, known as La Ceramica, that during its heyday in the 1940s and ’50s helped rebuild wartorn Sardinia. The site consists of two main buildings, the factory and an office, that were shuttered in the 1980s and left forgotten. Piles of red bricks are strewn all around, left behind when the factory was abandoned. Some of them have been smashed and become crimson sand glittering in the sunset, while the light casts long shadows from the broken doors and windows.
