The Deep Ellum community is evolving with a newer and renovated downtown Dallas. This change has been made apparent with the current construction for a Dart Rail station in the place of the Deep Ellum Bridge. Many knew this area as a highlight of the Deep Ellum which represented an entrance to the Deep Ellum arts community. As a resident of downtown I have experienced the changing nature of the landscape and have captured this through photography. I hope to show a unique vantage point of places that are new, old and those that have been “unseen” by any new visitor to Dallas. The life of the Deep Ellum is not lost, and will continue to grow in its eclectic environment that many have grown to love.
The combination of art and architecture has always driven my motivation for photography. With this series I wanted to highlight the vibrant colors that give character and life to this unique area of Deep Ellum. I focused on using architectural elements to make natural frame for their composition.
