I created "Madonna, Angola" in
response to reports and photos from a friend who was working for the United
Nations, documenting the plight of internally displaced persons in Angola. I
wanted to honor the dignity and beauty of these “internal refugees.” I also
think it is important for Christians in the West to see images which depict the
Incarnation set in a place or time that we do not expect; it reminds us that the
Incarnation is truly for all people. |
