About this module

We asked photographer Lizzie Everard to make a series of photographic images inspired by Jesus’s famous words from a passage in Matthew’s Gospel known as “the Sermon on the Mount”.

Lizzie spent a month in the spring of 2002 working on the photographs and documenting her progress. These pages show the final images she chose and include her sketchbook and video diary.
