TRIBUTES FOR KINGS

THE STATIONS OF THE CROSS

The Stations of the Cross are the fourteen traditional panels recalling Christ's journey to the cross.
From the fifteenth century these moments have been depicted in nearly every media from carved
plaques to paintings and sculpture. These are my own versions using the technique I developed
called "oilgraphing" which blends photography, oil color and other media.

It was my intention to stay true to the iconic nature of the traditional imagery and yet allow
for mystery and the individual's personal emotional connection.

But one of the most important aspects of making these Stations was to take them one panel
further to The Resurrection. So concluding the series is Station Fifteen "Triumph,"
which before the attending audience at Asbury Theological Seminary April 18, 2005 where the series first premiered.

Their creation was made possible by a grant from Calvin College
and the support of Tribe of Los Angeles.
