The Vispo Bible: Exodus Completed

Exodus 40




I began Exodus, the second book of the Old Testament in January. It contains 40 chapters. I completed it today, August 31. As I was reading through Exodus, it began to occur to me that the content of the work could be reflected more in what I was creating. I started to think of the 10 Commandments, their creation from stone, their being smashed into pieces, distortion of text. The visual poetry evolved accordingly.

Now on to Leviticus, after a hiatus...

For those who haven't been following along, you can read more about this project, which i began in June, 2015 & plan to keep working on until I am no longer capable of doing so or until my demise, whichever comes first.
