This project came from the frustration I experiece as a Christian today. As believers we teach of Christ's love for mankind, yet deny Him by our actions. The book starts off with a statistic stating, "There are over five hundred churches in Central Arkansas...". The rest of the book goes on to visually describe some of the social issues facing Central Arkansas with statistics of those issues overlaying the images. Around the border of the social issue photos are photographs of the churches located in Central Arkansas. All of the social issue photographs were taken using a technique called painting with light. The subjects were setup in the dark, then using a torch, I would paint in the areas I wanted to be seen.
