REURBANISM-a visual exploration into the social landscapes of urban neighborhoods

I have started a new body of work REURBANISM-social landscapes of how our society (many times my family)interfaces with our urban landscape, which often appears a suburban style. There is a cross over of lifestyles where once the Topographic Photographers  illuminated the suburbs, I see the melding of suburbanism into our inner city districts. This is especially poignant as we witness the struggle of our municipalities and the affects of the real estate market. I expected that as an adult I would witness evolving places, increased efficencies helping us adapt to social complexities, and illuminating progress. Somewhere on the road ahead, we will listen to Einstein, "We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them."
