About The Work
The viewer is a voyeur, looking through the blinds of Church Window, photographed by Tim Davis. Inside is a tree crafted with colored paper bearing a sign with an encouraging Bible verse from Psalm 1:3: "He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper." The scene resembles the wall of a child's Sunday School classroom, but Tim Davis creates a complex and conflicting image. Is the message meant for the viewer, who is on the outside of this lesson? Church Window provokes a discourse on who exactly receives these Christian reassurances.
