Altering consciousness

Article Abstract:

Minister Richard Emmanuel of the Church of Gloucester, MA, presents an exhibition which showcases thought-provoking works that depict mankind's impending destruction. The use of different materials and themes underscore the pervading religious, commercial and capitalistic influences that have caused much damage to the human world. However, Emmanuel also aims to deliver a message of hope that man can still do something to avert disaster by using his creativity. The current exhibit 'Ashes to Ashes' is held at the second floor of the Church of Glouchester.
