On the Internet. In the Dallas News, Houston City Major all upset about some teens making videos of abandoned buildings. They are being torn down as I write. Doubt your art class teacher would assign you such a project. Maybe teacher is referring in general terms. Could take pictures of houses in foreclosure. Pictures of cemeteries that lack care. Could take pictures of shelters where abandoned people and animals go. There is enough fodder on the Internet to inspire any artist. Did find an artist in the area requested. You could go there. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/ent/��
You ll have to get in a car and drive around to find them. Wish I could help, but I would have to drive around myself. Since it s your project, you should probably be the one to do this. Good luck! It sounds like a neat art project. Hope it turns out well.
Yeah, this would involve you needing to drive. It would be hard to take photos in a bus or something where you can t stop when you need too.
