Artist's Description
I have to say that the church on the main square in Liberia, Costa Rica, was a surprise. This is a part of the world known for colonial churches, often very Baroque in flavor. For the church on the main square to be so modern almost felt like I had stepped away from Latin America.
As memory serves, the plaque did indicate it had been built in the 1970s, but those are all the details I know for the Iglesia Catolica de Liberia. It was a bit weather worn but an unforgettable design, a little slice of modern Central America.
I spent some time standing there taking photos of those sweeping lines, all pointing up reminiscent of the design of old cathedrals.

I wonder if some day this Costa Rican church will seem as quaint as the Baroque ones do today?
About Mark Tisdale
Life is full of happy surprises. After just over a decade working in the 9 to 5 cube world, I threw caution to the wind to follow my dreams of being a full time visual artist.
