This peice is a digital space of image, video, audio, and text. The layout is very basic to benefit its use as an archive project so it can continually be added to. It is a collection that must be searched and navigated through. There are many ways to proceed from each page, so progression can vary with each participation. It is an archive that seeks to look at urban space and politics through Biblical prophesy. The project was inspired by anonymous graffiti writing on an abandoned housing project in Chicago. The writing photographed appears in the beginning of the piece. I am interested in how scripture relates to our present situation and how it collectively affects us. It works best on Macintosh computers with a relatively fast connection. There are links on every page, sometimes you may have to look.
