2000 –2001
The Gettysburg series, images of the battle site with included excerpts of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, is a homage to the men and ideals that they fought and died for. I wanted to contribute my voice in support of Lincoln's resolution that "these dead shall not have died in vain." Unfortunately the "unalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" of all people regardless of race, creed or sex is still today not universal, even in our advanced society. These images represent my desire to contribute to the dialogue on human rights and to commemorate those who made the supreme sacrifice for those unalienable rights.
