Kevin Bauman

Kevin Bauman works and lives in Denver. He is an architectural, interior, and industrial photography. He also works in Detroit where he did a project about the decline of housing in Detroit; the project is called 100 Abandoned Houses. It has been a ten yearlong project that he continues to work on. He started photographing houses in Detroit and then he soon got interested in how many houses were really abandoned in Detroit and how it was getting significantly worse with every year. I think that his images are very beautiful, which is very interesting because he showing us a very ugly and sad problem. I also find this project to be very interesting because he talks about the abandonment in Detroit. They amount of abandoned homes in Detroit is very high. Detroit is able to populate the amount of people that Manhattan or San Francisco has but the population is fewer than 1 million people. There is a lot of new reality being built in Detroit but the houses in the area like Brush Park are becoming more abandoned.
