Moving between painting, photography and installation, the work of Los Angeles–born, Berlin-based artist Slater Bradley (born 1975) examines themes of science, faith and cosmology. At the center of this book are his installation works, exhibited between 2016 and 2018, in which collective spiritual experience, sacred sites, personal history, cosmology, philosophy and mythology all merge into one vast edifice.
With beautiful gilt stamping and page edges, and abundant full-color plates of superbly photographed works, Sundoor also features an essay by the Mayan calendar systems expert John Major Jenkins, and a link to original music created by Oscar-nominated composer Dustin O'Halloran for Bradley's Sundoor at World's End installation at the Church of Mary Magdalene in Venice, Italy, in 2017.
