Description: In August 2005, Hurricane Katrina and the subsequent levee breaches ravaged New Orleans. Dramatic images abounded, but they told only the beginning of the story. In the 10 years since, Spielman documented subtle changes throughout his beloved city. As vines creep up the side of a home and graffiti appears on the walls of an abandoned building, Spielman caputres rebirth and blight, perseverance and renewal.
