Korean Presbyterian Church, Queens, New York

Looking past the Lower East Side to a new project I’d like to do, I took the subway out to Queens to photograph the Korean Presbyterian Church. For some time, I have been interested in the phenomenon of megachurches and the way in which they are redefining and/or fitting in to the urban landscape–often suburban landscape. I am tentatively calling my project the New Religious Landscape, and while I expect that it will center on megachurches, I am open to other forms of religious architecture or display. The Korean Presbyterian Church is a megachurch, but atypical in that it is in New York City, and that it was designed by an architect very much on the cutting edge, Greg Lynn. More photographs and comments to follow.
