Фотограф и священник Шон Браун создал серию работ, отражающих душу раздробленного юга США

January 16, 2020 Apocryphal Portrait By Shawne Brown Artist: Shawne Brown Project: Evening Land Description: Shawne Brown’s project, Evening Land, features work that began over fifteen years ago as what the artist describes as an “apocryphal portrait” of the country from his home state of Tennessee and stretching across the American Bible Belt. Borrowing its title from a poem by D.H. Lawrence, the collection was born of Brown’s recollections of “looking out the window at the passing landscape with the powerful (and sometimes frightening) hymns in my ears.” With that vision always in focus, Brown, now a priest himself, renders images that attempt to capture the soul of a place and conjure a clear picture of “a violent and divided culture of declining civility” in the place where he is now committed to serve. https://www.oxfordamerican.org/item/1897-apocryphal-portrait#sigProId1a5740d115 Eyes on the South&\#xA0;is curated by&\#xA0;Jeff Rich. The weekly series features selections of current work from Southern artists, or artists whose photography concerns the South.
