Movies: Saints in a Bush, March 10, 2008
This is a movie I made of saints, angels, and various lawn ornamentation that can be found on lawns in Marine Park, Brooklyn. I love religious iconography and so I always found the Catholic lawn statues that litter the grass in yards all across New York City to be wonderful. I grew quite spoiled by New York and thus am always a bit surprised when I arrive in a city where everyone hasn’t bought their own personal Virgin Mary and built increasingly ornate shrines for her. I took these photos with my Digital Rebel and made them into a slide show with iMovie ‘08.
