Debroah Kelly 'Beware of God'
Artlink 2005 Vol.25 No.3
Page 20-21
Alix: In this particular Artlink, Debroah Kelly's work 'Beware of God' is one of the new works being showcased by the magazine. One of her images in the set is also used as the cover image. The cover image ('Beware of God' parody 'Beware of Dog' sign) is entirely different in how it is recepted to the image inside the magazine (Beware of God being projected from the stock buildings). The cover image is satirical and amusing where as the second is intended to instill a little bit of fear in your heart and question just who are you really worshipping. But this does not mean that they don't work well. I'm quite fond of the both of them for both these reasons. They both speak the same message, just using different contexts.
I wasnt able to find these images on the net, but the journal is in the library. I recommend you maybe check it out.
