Bryce Rickman has a degree in graphic design and works in a print shop near Ann Arbor, Michigan, and is a hobbyist and aspiring artist, poet, and musician. As a native of Southeast Michigan, he grew up in the shadow of the same monolithic ghosts of industry that he now seeks to photograph. Relatively new to urban exploration, he seeks to capture and convey, through photography, a sense of empathy and wonder for the places forgotten to and frozen in time, and the daily lives of those who worked and lived in those now decaying skeletons.
