Fame Saints: images of adulation.

Saints are those who have transcended human life and death in order to intercede on the behalf of humans. They rule a place, craft, or state of being, and watch over those who occupy their realm.

In our culture celebrities gain a sort of sainthood. We revere, idealize, and worship them; they become icons, images that we enshrine and imbue with meaning and power. But what do celebrities do for us? Saints offer protection and good fortune, even redemption. What if celebrities had heavenly gifts to give? My Fame Saints imagine three sainted celebrities offering messages of mercy to their realms.
