I’m working on a new series of photograms–a process that leaves part of an exposed photograph blank.  I’m superimposing an architectural plan of a sacred building–mosque, cathedral, temple, geometric pattern, etc.–over satellite photographs of natural landscapes. 

They are 16"x 26, following the golden ratio, and printed on aluminum panels.

I find it an interesting contrast between the man-made pattern order and the natural pattern order.  I'm exploring how to "flatten" religions; how to reduce different religions to their most common denominator to emphasize their similarities.

  I'll be posting the entire series on their own dedicated page soon, but here are the first few images in the series:
