Beauty of Destruction by Taylor Hinds


Taylor Hinds takes a photographic journey through what she calls the “beautifully tragic ruins” of Detroit, Michigan, in this photo series entitled ‘Beauty of Destruction.’ Abandoned, decaying or just plain run-down, Hinds’s photos show the appeal that remains among some the city’s buildings and attractions, despite years of neglect.

    These are kind of weak.. There is way more that can be explored in Detroit. Hell, I found more decay in Dayton, Ohio back in ’09

    I agree with Jordan. There is a deeply interesting urban landscape in detroit that is not really captured by these photos. Also, this has been done to the death; someone needs to document the good, creative and productive movement rising from the ashes of these structures.
