Skin Deep by Steven Burton

Skin Deep is a project that seeks to show the effects of this ongoing gang conflict in Los Angeles. Steven Burton set out to photograph realistic portraits of former gang members who are trying to escape the revolving door of death and prison. The aftermath of gang life is not only carried within - it is also scrawled across faces and bodies. Skin Deep uniquely highlights the impact tattoos have on the way a person is perceived by showing what each participant might look like without them.
Steven Burton is a self-taught photographer from the U.K. Following a successful modeling career where he had the opportunity to work with and be inspired by iconic photographers such as Bruce Weber, Patrick Demarchelier and Michael Roberts to name a few. Steven has combined his love of photography with his passion for travel and portraiture, traveling to remote locations around the world, working for various advertising clients and NGOs. Steven now lives between New York and Miami.

Father Gregory Greg Joseph Boyle (born May 19, 1954) is an American Jesuit priest. He is the founder and Director of Homeboy Industries and former pastor of Dolores Mission Church.
