Yves Marchand & Ramain Meffre are two photographers working together to photograph Detroit. They have been focusing on documenting the decayed, abandoned and forgotten. They have a large series of photographs of various theaters throughout Detroit. Their work attracted me because I have always had an interest things forgotten; the things that used to be dealt with in everyday life just left to their own devices for years.
I recognized some of their photographs from tumblr and thought they were gorgeous but never knew who the artist was, but now I do! Their photographs are beautiful and add a spark of life to these old, abandoned places. Time has stopped for most of these forgotten locations and it's amazing how, to me anyway, these places feel alive again and imagining the memories and events that happened in each room. Thanks for posting them!
