Huffington Post called him “a master of the abandoned”—and for good reason. Take a strange and wonderful photographic journey into a world time has forgotten—amusement parks that have been shut down and overgrown.
The “artivist” known only as Seph Lawless has spent the last ten years photo-documenting the America that was left behind in the throes of economic instability and overall decline—decrepit shopping malls, houses, factories, even amusement parks.
Through nearly two hundred gorgeous and elegiac photographs, Abandoned details Lawless’s journey into what was once the very heart of American entertainment: the amusement park. Here is includes:
Disney World’s Discovery Island and River Country
Joyland Amusement Park
Dogpatch USA
Fun Spot Amusement Park and Zoo
Bushkill Amusement Park
Land of Oz
Lake Shawnee Amusement Park
Geauga Lake Amusement Park
Spreepark
Chippewa Lake Amusement Park
Enchanted Forest Playland
And more!
