San Gabriele dell'Addolorata's shrine, Isola del Gran Sasso D'Italia, Wednesday 10:59 am.

These images are the photographic documentation of churches built after Vatican Council II (1962-1965), they want to reach a synthesis, they therefore depict the church as an architectural and human place: indispensable elements of the concept of church that the New Testament defines as "god's building."

The church, therefore, is not intended as a building but as a space made up of people of flesh and bone, of "human material" or - as Saint Paul continues - of "living stones".

Post-Conciliar churches structure of the chancel was completely revolutionized.
This change led to a shift of the priest, no longer turned towards the tabernacle and the crucifix but to the churchgoers (versus populum), to "make the bridge" between what is spiritual and what is earthly.

The new vision of the priest is vital in our identification within our photographic project. 
In fact, we place the camera in front of the altar - as if it replaces the priest's gaze - pointed towards the church entrance framing the churchgoers, those present at the ceremony.
Photography is then the synthesis.
