As you may remember I have been mulling an idea, based on the last deep conversation I had with my mom, over. You can read about my inspiration here.
I have decided to take the steps to create a photo series based on the Fight For Humanity.
In the beginning of the creation of man, the creator favored man over all creations. Giving man the unique ability of freedom of choice. None other were given this ability. This caused a great rift between those who were happy with their existence and those who wanted more.
However, what was seen by many as a privilege and favoritism was actually plagued with its own issues. For with free will comes temptation, sin, redemption, virtues and a constant struggle for humanity and the salvation of the human soul.
Since Ancient times the human race has tried to explain the struggle through religion, folklore, legends, and myths. Reaching for understanding and knowledge while wanting to prove that the human soul did not end with death.
AJ Blanton’s Fight for Humanity series is the story of this struggle as seen through different cultures and religions from around the Ancient world.
It will begin with 2 photo shoots on September 14 and October 2.
Pandora will open the box on September 14 and the angels will be divided in a great war on October 2.
I will have over 20 shoots scheduled between October and May. Be on the look out for some sneak peeks and early releases.
Some photos (my favorites) will not be release until I publish the calendar next June.
