“Spirit of Atlanta" is a perfect example of what makes Deborah Whitehouse’s murals so exceptional: her ability to capture not only the appearance, but the essence of the communities she photographs.” -- Julia Emmons, Atlanta City Council Member at Large |

The best image in the show, "Hot Dog Stand," shows a pale, miniskirted young woman leaning into the window of a temporary vending booth. The white fluorescent light from within strangely sets the interior of the booth apart from the exterior, which is bathed in an eerie yellow wash.
