Ambiguous art by me, Bethann Shannon…
Is it a nun? Or a sailor? Or a man in a prayer cap in an archway?
I also have “One Eye Guy” , another of my characters that is “ambiguous”!
I work with both “The Nun-Guy” & “One Eye Guy” a bunch!

100 Strangers Praying Photobooth 1986 Times Square
I found myself praying (really praying!) in a photo booth, in NYC, on Times Square, 1986.
I really loved the pictures of me praying and started a series of self portraits. My plan was to take a praying self portrait everyday…but then…
I got curious about other people…
Do they pray?
What do they pray for?
And how do they look when they pray?
I started approaching strangers everyday for 4 months to pray with me.
These are some of the pictures from that series at these links:
