Cracked Concrete Dam El Alto Rain in along concrete walls above turbulent water in El Alto

Cracked Concrete Dam El Alto Rain

by Brooke Farmer

Hard afternoon light strikes the gray concrete walls of an abandoned dam in El Alto, revealing deep fissures where water seeps through the cracked surface. Turbulent water churns below the structure, churning against the base while steady rain creates a fine mist rising from the wet stone. Cables hang loosely across the frame, their metallic surfaces gleaming under the direct sun despite the rain. The symmetrical composition centers the massive infrastructure, emphasizing its civic-scale austerity. Puddles reflect the overcast sky on the wet pavement, and the dry season contrasts with the heavy downpour soaking the cracked masonry.
