Baltimore’s Silent Holdouts: 16 Years Captured in Abandoned Homes
TL;DR
Photographer Ben Marcin spent 16 years documenting Baltimore’s abandoned homes and makeshift camps, from crumbling inner-city row houses to rural sites on the Eastern Shore. His debut photobook, The Holdouts, frames a quiet narrative of time, isolation, and home, choosing not to photograph residents to preserve mystery and context as former properties resist change rather than being overtly turned into real estate developments.
