Abstract

Captured during journeys and walking trails connected to spirituality, the images in this essay are the result of the manifestations of a warrior force that guides and illuminates the path of so many devotees in the state of Rio de Janeiro. This devotion is, by its very nature, public and manifests itself through direct or indirect expressions of faith. This essay is an invitation to perceive, understand, and reinterpret the presence of these expressions within the urban landscape. More than mere images, they are signs of a faith that traverses streets and paths, revealing itself to those who choose to walk with mindfulness.
