    Vessels For Deeper Meanings© 2025 ISBN 979-8-90271-875-8 AbstractThis discussion “Vessels For Deeper Meanings© 2025 ISBN 979-8-90271-875-8”is a literary technique called textual analysis to analyze a biographical essay that describes the life, contributions to scholarship, and artistic output of Dr. William Anderson Gittens, D.D. The analysis explores how the text constructs Dr. William Anderson Gittens, D.D.s' intellectual identity, positions his cultural contributions within Caribbean scholarly discourse, and employs rhetorical strategies to emphasise his global influence. Through examining structure, thematic coherence, and narrative framing, the analysis demonstrates the essay's central function as both documentation and cultural affirmation.Dr. William Anderson Gittens, D.D.ReferencesBhabha, H.

    Textual Analysis of St. John's Parish, Barbados © 2025 ISBN 979-8-90271-875-8 .mp3AbstractThis review examines the image of Textual Analysis of St. John's Parish, Barbados © 2025 ISBN 979-8-90271-875-8 capturing the intricate relationship between architecture, nature, and cultural memory. The photograph emphasizes the harmony between the church's weathered Georgian architecture and the vibrant natural elements that surround it, particularly focusing on the interplay of light, texture, and organic life. The church, built from local coral stone, serves as a lasting symbol of colonial history and the enduring spiritual significance within the Barbadian community. Through a cinematographic lens, the image highlights the church's monumental presence, framed by lush tropical foliage, which contrasts with the austerity of the stone structure. The upward angle of the shot contributes to the church's symbolic stature, while the natural light and vibrant greenery reflect the passage of time and the resilience of nature. The photograph provides a nuanced portrayal of the church as both a colonial artifact and a living cultural space, encouraging a reflection on the dynamic interplay between history, identity, and the environment. The combination of architectural beauty and natural surroundings invites contemplation on how built structures are woven into the larger narrative of place, memory, and heritage.Dr.William Anderson Gittens, D.D.ReferencesBhabha, H.

    Literature Review: Not Just Monuments: Bussa, Adams, and Barrow are Chapters of a Living History © 2025 ISBN 978-976-97788-9-4AbstractThis literature review explores the lives and legacies of Bussa, Sir Grantley Adams, and Errol Walton Barrow, pivotal figures in Barbados's history. It examines their roles in the island's journey toward freedom, democracy, and independence, focusing on how their actions reshaped Barbados into a sovereign nation. Bussa's leadership in the 1816 slave rebellion symbolises the struggle for emancipation, while Adams's advocacy for labor rights and universal suffrage laid the groundwork for political independence. Barrow's vision as the 'Father of Independence' led to economic sovereignty and social justice. The review analyses the monuments erected in their honour as dynamic symbols that connect citizens to their past and inspire future generations. These monuments encapsulate complex histories, representing key moments such as the fight against slavery, the pursuit of labor rights, and the achievement of political independence. The 'unbreakable Barbadian spirit,' embodied by these figures, reflects resilience and unity in overcoming challenges. This review reinforces that these monuments are not merely tributes but integral components of Barbados's living history, fostering reflection on cultural and spiritual narratives that define collective identities.Dr. William Anderson Gittens,D.D.ReferencesBarbados Pocket Guide.

    Podcast 246 Exploring "The Art of Perception" with Dr. William Anderson GittensAbstractIn my 2025 book The Art of Perception (ISBN 978-976-97788-8-7), Dr. William Anderson Gittens,D.D. explores the multifaceted concept of perception, proposing the paradoxical statement, "the less you look, the more you see." This text offers an analysis of how professionals across various fields—ranging from writers and photojournalists to cultural practitioners and podcasters—engage with this idea. Through the lens of his extensive experience as a writer, publisher, photojournalist, and cultural theorist, I underscore the importance of reducing surface-level observation to achieve deeper understanding. The conversation examines this paradox through multiple professional perspectives, including theological insight, creative processes, ethical storytelling, cultural theory, and media arts. Each field reveals how slowing down and engaging with internal processes enhances professional insight, fosters empathy, and promotes critical thinking. The conclusion advocates for an enriched approach to perception that transcends conventional, superficial engagement with the world.Support the showCultural Factors Influence Academic Achievements© 2024 ISBN978-976-97385-7-7 A_MEMOIR_OF_Dr_William_Anderson_Gittens_D_D_2024_ISBNISBN978_976_97385_0_8 Academic.edu.

    Podcast 243 The Conversation: Unforeseen Encounters in Life: "In the Providential Hand of God”© 2025 ISBN978-976-97788-6-3AbstractThis paper examines Literature Review :The Conversation: Unforeseen Encounters in Life: "In the Providential Hand of God”© 2025 ISBN978-976-97788-6-3(2025), exploring how near-misses—events that narrowly avoid catastrophe—serve as a lens for understanding risk, providence, and human vulnerability. The narrative, set in a quiet suburb, follows a global citizen whose day is punctuated by several near-miss encounters, each revealing the fragility of seemingly calm daily life. Drawing on psychological, theological, technological, and scientific perspectives, this paper contextualizes the protagonist's experiences within contemporary frameworks of risk perception, the role of randomness, and the search for meaning in the face of uncertainty. The phenomenology of near-misses is explored, highlighting their disproportionate psychological impact, as well as their empirical significance in urban planning and other domains (Ibrahim et al., 2021). Furthermore, the paper investigates how these near-misses are interpreted through religious frameworks, where they are often seen as signs of divine providence (Broadrick et al., 2022). In contrast, statistical and algorithmic approaches, such as risk-limiting audits and explainable AI, treat near-misses as stochastic events that signal vulnerabilities within systems (Kaufman & Levy, 2024). The integration of these interdisciplinary insights leads to a nuanced understanding of how near-misses, whether personal or systemic, are sites of meaning-making, resilience, and growth. Ultimately, this paper demonstrates that near-misses, through various interpretative lenses, offer profound opportunities for reflection, action, and the cultivation of resilience in a world marked by uncertainty.Theoretical concepts including near-misses, providence, risk perception, resilience, explainable AI, religious interpretation, stochastic events, and randomness serve as the foundation for this scholarly discussion.Dr. William Anderson Gittens, D.D.Podcast 243The Conversation Unforeseen Encounters in Life In the Providential Hand of God copyright 2025 "ISBN 978-976-97788-6-3, filmed by Dr. William Anderson Gittens,D.D. of Devgro Media Arts Services®2015Bridgetown Barbadosto the Creator for guiding mI wish to express gratitude e and my late parents, Charles and Ira Gittens, for their guidance and creative expression.  Thanks to those who assisted me along this journey namely my Beloved wife Magnola Gittens, my Brothers Shurland, Charles, Ricardo, Arnott, Stephen, Sisters Emerald, Marcella, Cheryl, Cousins Joy Mayers, Kevin anSupport the showCultural Factors Influence Academic Achievements© 2024 ISBN978-976-97385-7-7 A_MEMOIR_OF_Dr_William_Anderson_Gittens_D_D_2024_ISBNISBN978_976_97385_0_8 Academic.edu.

    The Dance of Raindrops and The  Art of Culinary© 2025 ISBN 978-976-97719-7-0Dr,William Anderson Gittens D.D. conducts a  study which situates a personal encounter with a sudden backyard downpour at the intersection of photojournalism, cultural theory, and divinity—exploring how a moment of ecological intensity can illuminate the entanglement of nature and artistic expression. By examining the visual rhetoric of rain as it unfolds atop flowers and in the deliberate presentation of food at a contemporary celebration (Cards Community) and juxtaposing these with the work of MZ Creates, this discourse investigates how visual art functions as a bridge between organic processes and human creativity. Drawing on perspectives that celebrate beauty discovered in everyday moments (Our Mental Health) and on a scriptural reminder of beauty as a quiet, unfading spirit (1 Peter 3:3–4), the introduction frames a broader inquiry: how do chance encounters with nature catalyze perception, memory, and meaning within artistic practice? Methodologically, the paper recounts a personal field observation captured with a Canon Rebel T6, reflecting on how the act of photographing under unexpected rain reframes the photographer as observer, interpreter, and co-creator. This reflective procedure is read alongside established theories in cultural theory and photojournalism that privilege the situatedness of image-making within real-world contexts. The analysis extends to a culinary event remembered for its aesthetic finesse—an analogy that foregrounds the shared impulse in both culinary and natural art to choreograph sensory experience through careful arrangement, texture, and temporality. Together, these strands illuminate a guiding thesis: nature and culinary art share an underlying aesthetic philosophy that animates emotion, provokes thought, and reveals the social and spiritual dimensions of creativity. In the pages that follow, the dialectic between the organic world and human representation will be deployed to articulate how everyday beauty can become a catalyst for insight across disciplines."Podcast 228: Dance of Raindrops and The  Art of Culinary© 2025 ISBN978-976-97719-7-0filmed by Dr. William Anderson Gittens,D.D. of Devgro Media Arts Services®2015Bridgetown BarbadosI wish to express gratitude to the Creator for guiding me and my late parents, Charles and Ira Gittens, for their guidance and creative expression.  Thanks to those who assisted me along this journey namely my Beloved wife Magnola Gittens, my Brothers Shurland, Charles, Ricardo, Arnott, Stephen, Sisters Emerald, Marcella, Cheryl, Cousins Joy Mayers, Kevin and Ernest Mayers, Donna Archer, Avis Dyer, Jackie Clarke, Uncles Clifford, Leonard MayeSupport the showCultural Factors Influence Academic Achievements© 2024 ISBN978-976-97385-7-7 A_MEMOIR_OF_Dr_William_Anderson_Gittens_D_D_2024_ISBNISBN978_976_97385_0_8 Academic.edu.

    Biblical Critical Theory: Integrating Faith, Justice, and Culture© 2025 ISBN 978-976-97719-1-8And welcome to our conversation on a subject that combines art and religion, quite the intriguing combination, if I may say so myself. I am your host, Dr. William Anderson Gittens, DD. We are exploring how biblical critical thinking may be incorporated into the field of photojournalism, today as theologians, cultural theorists and photojournalists from the stunning island of Barbados.It is uncommon to hear about combining these two realms, yet it is a crucial topic, particularly for anyone who have ever pondered how their personal convictions may affect their work life. God is both transcendent and imminent, a concept that contrasts with secular worldviews. Biblical passages like Isaiah 55 9 and Acts 17 28 demonstrate this dual nature of God, emphasising his existence beyond and within the world.In Christian theology, pursuing knowledge is not just an intellectual exercise, but an act of worship, serving as a foundation for engaging with the external environment. The integration of religion and reasons provides a lens through which individuals can assess and influence culture. Ultimately, the journey of leading a Christian life begins with this understanding of God's transcendence and eminence.When we talk about applying biblical critical thinking to photojournalism, we are really looking at how scripture informs our understanding of truth and ethics. In many ways, photojournalism already aligns with these values, aiming to show reality, tell the truth, and do so ethically. However, adding a biblical lens pushes us to go a step further in ensuring our work glorifies God.While journalistic ethics ensure that we remain objective and truthful, biblical principles ask us to also consider factors and more about capturing it in a way that highlights God's truth and humanity. It is about making intentional choices with the stories we tell and the subjects we choose to highlight. For instance, when documenting controversial or sensitive topics, it becomes crucial to focus on the dignity and worth of the individuals involved.Scripture guides us to speak the truth in love, Ephesians 4.15, New International Version. Ensuring our work fosters understanding and compassion. This approach represents more than abiding by professional standards.It involves aligning each shot and story with passages such as 1 Corinthians 10.31, doing it all for the glory of God. It requires consideration of the audience's reaction and the potential for positive or negative impact.

    PREFACEOn Packing the Power of Silent Pedagogy © 2025 ISBN 978-976-97632-9-6The Unrushed EncounterIn the heart of a sun-drenched marketplace, a tumultuous crowd had gathered, their voices a cacophony of rage and outrage. They were united in their belief: justice must be served, and the woman accused of adultery must face her consequence. Yet, as they pressed forward, eager to cast their verdict, it was a solitary figure—Jesus—who stood in their midst. Rather than amplifying the clamour of judgment, He chose a different approach. In that moment, His silence spoke volumes.A Soundless Reflection:As the accusations rang out, Jesus bent down and began writing in the dust, His fingers tracing forms that eluded the grasp of the crowd's fury. What did He write? Words of condemnation? Or perhaps the very names of those holding stones? His actions drew the eyes of the multitude, captivating them in an unexpected stillness that contrasted sharply with their fervent desire to punish. In this act of silence, He questioned the core of their judgment, inviting them into a space of reflection that was both disarming and profound.Echoes of the Past:To truly grasp the significance of this encounter, we must consider the society of the time. The law was clear, and the stakes were high. This was a culture steeped in strict moral standards, where reputation could be tarnished and lives irrevocably altered by the weight of accusation. Yet, into this atmosphere of rigid expectation, Jesus introduced a radically different ethos—one that valued mercy over legalism and dignity over disgrace.Lessons from Nonverbal Communication:Jesus, the master of nonverbal teaching, demonstrated how symbolic action could convey deeper truths without uttering a single word. His silence urged those present to confront their own fallibility. As the crowd shifted uneasily, they began to reflect on their intentions and the reality of their own imperfections. In this space created by quiet, Jesus illuminated a profound lesson about the nature of compassion and understanding.The Path of Empathy:The implications of this moment extend beyond the dusty streets of Jerusalem; they speak to us today in a world often focused on swift judgments and immediate conclusions. Dr. William Anderson Gittens invites us to ponder: how can we, in our daily interactions, embrace the spirit of caution and compassion that Jesus embodied? By slowing down and resisting the urge to condemn, we uncover opportunities to foster empathy and cultivate an understanding far richer than the immediate satisfaction of judgment.A Call to Humility:The silence of Jesus in the face of condemnation serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of humility.

    Ants: Nature's Tiny Engineers © 2025, ISBN 978-976-97632-8-9.mp3ABSTRACTAnts: Nature's Tiny Engineers - A Comprehensive StudyIn his literary work, "Ants: Nature's Tiny Engineers," Dr. William Anderson Gittens, D.D., delves into the intricate world of ants, elucidating their indispensable role within ecosystems. This study seeks to illuminate how these minute creatures serve as nature's engineers through a comprehensive exploration of their survival needs, ecological contributions, and symbolic significance in human cultures.The Five Research Questions comprises 1. **What are the three critical requirements for ant survival?**2. **How do ants facilitate seed dispersal?**3. **In what manner do ants communicate within their colonies?**4. **What moral lessons do ants symbolize in religious contexts, particularly biblical teachings?**5. **What ecological functions do ants perform to enhance soil health?**My Findings include:Survival NeedsAnts require three fundamental elements for their survival: food, shelter, and water. These social insects thrive on an omnivorous diet that includes nectar, seeds, fungi, and other insects. Their nests serve not only as protective habitats but also as spaces for raising their young, ensuring the continuation of their colonies.Seed DispersalThrough a fascinating process known as myrmecochory, ants play a vital role in seed dispersal. They transport seeds that possess nutrient-rich appendages back to their nests, where they consume these appendages and subsequently discard the seeds in favorable conditions for germination. This symbiotic relationship between ants and plants promotes biodiversity and aids in ecosystem regeneration.CommunicationAnts have developed sophisticated methods of communication primarily through pheromones. These chemical signals convey crucial information regarding foraging, alerting fellow ants to danger, marking territories, and indicating reproductive readiness. This complex communication system enhances colony efficiency, enabling coordinated efforts in various activities.Moral SymbolismIn the realm of moral teachings, ants hold significant symbolic value, especially in biblical contexts. Proverbs 6:6-8 illustrates the ant as a model of diligence and preparation. The virtues of hard work and community effort embodied by ants resonate across diverse spiritual traditions, offering valuable lessons in cooperation and foresight for humanity.Ecological RoleAnts contribute extensively to ecosystem health through several ecological functions. Their tunneling activities aerate the soil, enhancing water infiltration and improving root access for various plants.

    Why Are Theologians Compared To Artists In Culture?c.2025.mp3

    PREFACEAs a theologian, I recognize that reflecting on my own experiences serves as a form of autobiographical insight or practical theology, intertwining personal narratives with broader theological discourse. This self-examination can be seen as a manifestation of lived theology, where my individual journey is interpreted through the lens of faith and theological understanding, contrasting with traditional theology that often emphasizes abstract doctrines. A case in point it should be noted that"Abstract doctrines" are core beliefs or teachings that prioritize generic or universal concepts over particular, tangible examples; they frequently include the cognitive process of abstraction. The ability of the mind to see attributes globally, which allows for the perception of general notions like "humanity" by distancing them from individual traits, is referred to in philosophy and cognitive research.Theologically speaking, abstract doctrines are condensed versions of fundamental beliefs that center on universal facts about God. They serve as the theoretical underpinnings of legal disciplines like copyright and international law that are constructed through doctrinal formation. In technology, the phrase can refer to abstract classes or interfaces used in database mapping for flexible entity connections or abstract repositories for data querying, especially in software development with frameworks like Doctrine in PHP.Inspired by this perspective, I set out to craft a narrative that explores the intersection of faith and art, centering on the life of Dr. William Anderson Gittens, D.D., a distinguished author, theologian, cultural theorist, and photojournalist who viewed himself as an artist contributing to the expansive tapestry of culture. Envision a serene summer day, sunlight filtering through the stained-glass windows of St. George's Anglican Church located in Barbados, where the outside world buzzes while an inner tranquility resonates deeply. In my humble studio, surrounded by books and art supplies, I reflect on my unique vocation—not merely interpreting scripture but weaving messages that connect the divine with the mundane through the mediums of art and photography. My philosophy, often shared with my wife Magnola, posits that every culture resembles a vast canvas awaiting strokes of insight—some bold, others subtle, yet all encouraging contemplation. You may ask why I blend theology and art in such a distinctive manner; I believe that spiritual truths must be woven into the very fabric of everyday life, conveyed through symbols, narratives, and images that resonate with the human spirit. In our contemporary world, we encounter numerous challenges that demand such integration.

    In the podcast episode Nature and Culture Captured on the Barbadian Canvas © 2025 ," hosted by Dr. William Anderson Gittens, the intricate interplay between nature and culture is thoughtfully examined through the lens of Barbados' rich heritage. The discussion portrays the island's landscapes as a metaphorical prism, which reveals the complex cultural narratives and emotional connections deeply embedded in its environment. This exploration sheds light on how the natural world can serve as both a source of inspiration and a reflection of cultural identity.Dr. Gittens emphasizes the duality of nature imagery, acknowledging both its calming effects and the inherent risks of simplifying cultural complexities. Nature has the power to evoke a sense of peace, yet it can also mask the depth of cultural experiences that exist within its portrayal. By addressing this duality, the podcast invites listeners to reflect on their perceptions of nature and its representation in cultural narratives.Another key theme of the episode is the evolution from film to digital photography, spotlighting how each medium contributes uniquely to cultural storytelling. Film captures moments in time with a certain nostalgia, while digital photography offers immediacy and accessibility, enabling more people to share their visual narratives. This shift not only democratizes the act of storytelling but also enhances the importance of balancing idealized representations with the raw realities of life in Barbados.Looking toward the future, Dr. Gittens envisions an enriched dialogue where nature and cultural narratives intertwine, fostering collective action that preserves cultural identity.

    PREFACEWelcome, readers! I'm Dr. William Anderson Gittens, a passionate cultural advocate sharing my experiences as a cultural practitioner on the beautiful island of Barbados. My work encompasses various professions, including dynamic podcaster, photojournalist, media arts professional, cultural theorist, theologian, and author. Today, I invite you to explore the profound significance of colour in artistic expression, focusing on the primary colours and their essential role in nurturing creativity, particularly among children.In the latest episode of my podcast, "Colour Me Volume 2," we delve into the pivotal role of primary colours—magenta, cyan, and yellow—in art. These colours are foundational building blocks that form the basis for nearly all other hues, akin to the letters of the alphabet in language. The vast spectrum of colours available to artists is immense; however, children often gravitate towards these vibrant, unmixed shades, which cultivates their early creative confidence.Research indicates that children have a natural affinity for bold colours, and this preference is evident in their artwork. For instance, when I observe young artists at work, they often choose bright colours to express themselves vividly. This inclination not only fosters their individual creativity but also introduces them to fundamental concepts of colour theory. In my experience as a Media Arts Specialist, I have seen how graphic artists, fine artists, photojournalists, and cinematographers utilise primary colours to construct visually compelling designs, evoke emotions, and set the mood for their pieces.Traditionally, the primary colours in art have been red, yellow, and blue. However, in contemporary media, we recognise RGB (red, green, blue) as the additive primaries. Both sets of primary colours are vital for accurately representing the world and shaping viewer perception, allowing artists to communicate effectively through their chosen mediums. By understanding the significance of these colours, children can appreciate the foundational role they play in creating various tones and shades.During my time teaching painting in primary schools, I noticed that when children experiment with mixing colours, particularly with white to create tints, it opens up captivating discussions about color theory and emotional expression. For example, blending white with red results in soft pink, illustrating how minor adjustments can dramatically alter the mood of a piece. This process allows students to explore subtle tonal variations, empowering them to convey different emotions through their art.Through this experimentation, children not only develop vital technical skills but also gain an insightful understanding of how emotional nuances can bSupport the showCultural Factors Influence Academic Achievements© 2024 ISBN978-976-97385-7-7 A_MEMOIR_OF_Dr_William_Anderson_Gittens_D_D_2024_ISBNISBN978_976_97385_0_8 Academic.edu.

    Podcast Episode 206: My Personal Experience Exploring East Jersey Old Town The Village© 2025 ISBN 978-976-97521-1-5 Hi and welcome to yet another enlightening episode of my podcast, listeners! I am Dr. William Anderson Gittens, D.D.coming to you from lovely Barbados. As a doctor of theology, author, podcaster, photojournalist, media arts specialist, and cultural theorist, I invite you to join me today as we embark on a fascinating tour of East Jersey's Olde Towne The Village—a vibrant tapestry woven with the threads of the 18th and 19th centuries. Together, we will uncover the architectural treasures of East Jersey Old Towne, where each building stands as a meticulously preserved relic, narrating the rich history of the Raritan Valley, including the storied Indian Queen Tavern.In this episode, I utilize a variety of lenses shaped by my multifaceted background—scholar, theologian, photojournalist, and cultural theorist—to craft a visual narrative that captures our rich cultural past. These lenses allow me to highlight cultural backgrounds, convey compelling narratives, and explore photographic artistry. It is through this approach that I seek to enhance my research obligations while increasing visibility around our shared historical narratives and structures.Podcast Episode 206: My Personal Experience Exploring East Jersey Old Town The Village© 2025 ISBN 978-976-97521-1-5 filmed by Dr. William Anderson Gittens,D.D. of Devgro Media Arts Services®2015Bridgetown BarbadosI wish to express gratitude to the Creator for guiding me and my late parents, Charles and Ira Gittens, for their guidance and creative expression.  Thanks to those who assisted me along this journey namely my Beloved wife Magnola Gittens, my Brothers Shurland, Charles, Ricardo, Arnott, Stephen, Sisters Emerald, Marcella, Cheryl, Cousins Joy Mayers, Kevin and Ernest Mayers, Donna Archer, Avis Dyer, Jackie Clarke, Uncles Clifford, Leonard Mayers, David Bruce, and Collin Rock.

    ABSTRACTExplaining The Language of Black and White Photography: An Academic Exploration© 2025 is crucial for me as a Photojournalists, Doctor of Divinity  and Media arts specialists because it enhances understanding, motivates people, and allows them to apply what they've studied to new situations.Given the aforementioned, I felt it was essential to highlight the unique characteristics that set colour photography apart from its black and white equivalent through my investigation of tone and contrast. When discussing discussing The Language of Black & White Photography Explained© 2025 978-976-97471-5-9, I know how vital it is to use language that is familiar to your audience and appropriate for their language level because I am a renowned author. Since some of my readers might not be familiar with this subject, I should avoid using jargon and technical terms. As a result, in this field, I welcome the possibilities of black and white film to document and tell stories, enabling me to define themes by closely examining visual components and content. My photos' depth and visual appeal are greatly enhanced by the way contrast interacts. By weaving storytelling into my photographic practice, I enhance the emotional resonance and communicative power of my work, thus delving deeper into the syntax and artistic language that black and white photography engenders.A contemporary art form that cuts across cultural and chronological barriers, black and white photography speaks a universal visual language. It necessitates a combination of technical accuracy and artistic judgment and highlights the interaction between light and shadow in a manner that colour photography frequently cannot.Dr. William Anderson   Gittens, D.D.Author, CEO,Cinematographer ,Cultural Theoretician , Editor in Chief of Devgro Media Arts Services Publishing®2015,License Cultural  Practitioner, Media Arts Specialists' and Publisher This podcast, "The Language of Black and White Photography: An Academic Exploration,"© 2025 978-976-97471-5-9Podcast 203 filmed by  presented byDr. William Anderson Gittens,D.D. of Devgro Media Arts ServicesPublish ®2015Bridgetown Barbados and produced by Devgro Media Arts Services, delves into the intricate semantics of monochromatic imagery.
