Pilgrimage to Mount Saint Benedict

After, we go pass in for some dead

The bell tower at the Abbey of Our Lady of Exile, known as the Benedictine abbey located in north Trinidad. The This Benedictine Monastic community is the largest and oldest in the Caribbean and was founded in 1912, by an order of monks from Brazil, after the Order of St Benedict of Italy.

Homage to the Virgin Mary

Just outside of this Abby, a red sedan was idling. Through the tinted windows, a couple could been seen courting. The man kept revving the engine as both lovers focused on the pleasures of fresh love consummated at this sacred site. A lover's lane to bring your girlfriend to a place that reveals a panoramic vista of the Caroni plains. He hands on her cheek, her palm on his leg, St. Augustine, Trinidad.

Richard Bolai lives and works from Trinidad, West Indies. He is a bookbinder,Graphic designer and the author of thebookmann, which from 2004, has written and photographed independently aspects of Trinidad and Tobago's art culture.

In 2008, he began a series of self studies called Feinin which incorporated digital superpositions of artists who have left a mark in art history by using the internet as the core of reference. He also produced parodies relating to anthropological studies of Trinidad and Tobago, for example, folklore or observations of the society via class and stereotypes

The work then expanded by actually creating dimensional replicas, capturing a map over the subjects to explore the underling subconscious in the form of art. This aided the ability to analyze art by producing art parodies to understand the meaning behind it. No money was spent or assistance in producing these compositions from common items found in his home, a chair, a mirror, or old tyre.

The artists lists includes, da Vinci's Last Supper, Koons's dog, Hirst's spin paintings, Andres Serrano's piss Christ to Monet to name a few, over one hundred artists' have been completed, producing one in every 24 hour cycle.

It should be noted that with the feinin studies, you should see that actual work that is been parodied via the link. It makes no sense otherwise.
