My career as a woodcarver as seen me through some intersting projects. When I started doing religious statues it had a profound impact on my spirituallity.

I am not sure whether it was my faith that took me in that direction or the art that made me more spiritual. I have to admit I dont know exactly how and why I have changed, only that I am concerned about things in the world I was never concerned about before.

I am planning on doing a sculpture of a fat western man eating a large burger twisting and turning away from a starving African child holding a empty bowl. I feeI it shows the outrage of the situation. I was thinking of asking churches to display it to raise money for charity. Would this be thought of as too controversial
 
wow, amazing work!

and i don’t think your idea would be too controversial. might make some ppl uncomfortable, yes, but i suspect those are the ppl who need to be made uncomfortable. 😉
