Terri Garland
THE GOOD BOOKS (United States, 2006-2007)
Terri Garland photographed Bibles that came from churches in the hurricane devastated city of New Orleans. The churches were flooded by hurricane Katrina, which raced over the state of Louisiana in 2005. The weather stained Bibles would seem to be a fitting symbol for the religious views of the American South, often permeated with racism, nationalism and xenophobia.
