Portfolio > Comedy County Cocke

Welcome to Cocke County, a mountain community in East Tennessee with a reputation, not altogether undeserved, as the region's capital of vice and corruption.
In the hills and hollows of this Appalachian community, an array of criminal activities: “Moonshinin”, organized gambling, cockfighting, prostitution, chop shops and racketeering flourish.
In contrast, Cocke County is also home to some of the few congregations of Holiness Churches that practice the act of Following Signs; Serpent Handling.
Embellished with hendecasyllable line of text, Comedy County Cocke provides a quality of Illuminated Manuscripts while mimicking classic artworks based on Dante Alighieri’s Comedia.
