"My son’s photo of a parade in Brunswick, Maine, on Good Friday led me to create a contemporary version of the subject. In art history, such versions of biblical stories go back centuries. In the Renaissance, artists used local models in contemporary dress and even local landscapes to illustrate the Christian story. What is more contemporary than a supermarket parking lot?"
