Suburban dreams

Thanks to Conscientious I have discovered Beth Yarnelle Edwards' images of the contemporary, suburban domestic sphere. These are wonderful, intimate photographs that turn the mundane and familiar into something exotic and important. One could imagine these pictures showing up on the covers of sociology and psychology books for years to come - much like Roger Mayne's photographs of Southam Street did in the 1960s. Although unlike Mayne's images, one is often left wondering how they were contrived . Of course, the shifting gaze from outside to inside is also interesting.
