Kenyan painters and stations of the cross

10 June 2009 by pcNielsen Leave a Comment

Kenyan painters were somewhat recently tasked with painting the stations of the cross in the Lodwar Cathederal (Kenya). See the results on this website. The grouping is titled “Through Nomadic Eyes.” My favorite one of the bunch is below, with the storefront in the background, a little post-modern disconnect in artistic terms.

Paul Nielsen founded The Aesthetic Elevator late in 2005, posting to it for the first time in early 2006. He owns a piece of paper, located somewhere in his house (not on the wall) stating that he earned a B.F.A. in studio art from the University of Nebraska around about 2001. While there, he studied studied architecture, graphic design and ceramics, graduating with a degree in studio art. Paul presently serves as communications manager for a small non-profit doing their print design and marketing. He spends time in his garage studio as much as possible — which is not nearly enough. His home is in Siloam Springs, Arkansas. Visit his website at http://pcNielsen.com.
