GAS

An ongoing photographic project visualising the continuing life of disused gas stations in America, Australia and the UK.

Unlike most of Nightingale's projects which are research driven and planned out in advance, the locations that appear in Gas were all chance encounters that he came across while on the way to somewhere else (a lot like the way one comes across a visiting a working gas station)

The project self-consciously references Ed Ruscha's Twentysix Gasoline Stations (1962).
