The Good Books

These Bibles have been pulled from the final resting places of mud-caked pews and condemned church floors, from both the Central City and Lower Ninth Ward areas of New Orleans, LA following hurricane Katrina.

Limited edition, archival ink-jet prints. 11.5 x 16 inches or 19.5 x 27.25 inches.

The elements of water, earth and air have irrevocably altered these books. The paradigm of social neglect has obviated the congregations that valued them. For me, they are both beautiful in their decay and incendiary in their implication”. - Terri Garland -
