Micah McCoy: Minor Prophet

December 1, 2022–February 1, 2023
Opening Reception: Thursday, December 8, 5–7 p.m. 

Minor Prophet, loosely based on the Judeo-Christian story of Job, witnesses a family faced with existential crisis in a chillingly desperate landscape. This series blurs the line between traditional documentary and the fictional, leveraging the illusion of photographic truth to allow the individual characters in the narrative to function as surrogates in mythmaking.

This project is partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council Agency. 

Please note: For entry into DEPS spaces, masks required.
