Representative Evangelical Spaces

Published on Oct 13, 2020

Much of my work takes up storied sites of the past, but I’ve also had a longstanding curiosity to examine the negative concepts of space dominant in Evangelicalism. This visual essay is my attempt to take up that topic. The essay is divided into five sections, each centering on a representative type of Evangelical space. The first section considers the signal contribution of contemporary Evangelicals to the religious landscape: the megachurch. For the second section I look back on my time in a youth mission trip to Chile in 1994. The heart of this essay is a section on the Chapel of the Holy Dove outside Flagstaff, Arizona. It’s a highly unusual architectural type for Evangelicals since they tend to leave the building of roadside shrines to Catholics. The short fourth section is meant to throw light on the global presence of the Evangelical movement. And the final section investigates the history of the Evangelical aesthetic by an examination of the Moody Church in Chicago.
