Found this sad building in an area known as Poletown in Detroit. The whole area was decimated when GM decided to build a factory there. All the homes were bought up on the cheap and the residents had to relocate. Now, 20 years later, GM decided to close the plant. This elegant building is one of the few remnants of the Eastern European community that once thrived there. The roof has collapsed and I'm sure it'll be torn down in the next year or two.
My love of the arts began early on in life and was greatly influenced by an inspiring photography teacher in high school. I began teaching myself to paint in 2019 and have had my work exhibited in numerous shows in the Detroit area. One of the joys of being an artist is looking at the world in totally different ways and discovering a painting or photograph in a million unexpected places. For inquiries: dominmark@yahoo.com
