WATERS OF HOPE

SEPTEMBER 20 - NOVEMBER 10, 2007

Throckmorton Fine Art is pleased to announce the second exhibition of photographs by Brazilian artist Christian Cravo.  The show entitled WATERS OF HOPE will feature images from Brazil, Haiti and India.  Of his many travels around the world, Cravo has captured the uniqueness of different cultures and its environments. The new body of work in this exhibition explores the religious connection between the people and the bodies of water they worship in their daily lives.

Cravo takes us to places where water is not only sacred but it has a powerful way of transforming people.  Water is the giver of all life, it nourishes, cleanses, cools, replenishes and it brings people together to one common place, body, soul and nature.  The images also represent the connection  that religion and cultures have in relation to the water sources that we take for granted.  They are a photographic depiction of the human condition.
