Selected by Duke Chapel as this year's C. Eric Lincoln Fellow in Theology and Arts, graduate student Shiraz Ahmed explores how and why local Muslim men wear beards in his exhibition The Beards of Muslim Men. The exhibition, which is on display in the Chapel until May 5, places photographic portraits of bearded Muslim men on stylized backgrounds. In this talk, he will describe his work on the project.
