SIENNA REID | SIENNA REID ~ PAINTINGS AND DRAWINGS | Religious
I live in Rome, one of the main religious centers of the world. I worked as a guide for art and historic tours in the Vatican for many years and developed a rather personal relationship with the museums and St. Peter's as I was there so many times I could not count them and I have spent years studying the decadent and often shocking history of the Roman Catholic Church. Rome itself is occupied by about 50,000 clergy, mostly in the center and their habits cannot but go noticed as our paths cross in this dense city. These paintings are inspired by the political impact of the church as well as physicality of the servants of the church themselves and the way they present themselves to the world.
