  • A Catholic confessional between a penitent parishioner and her local priest at St. Lawrence's Catholic church in Feltham, London. While kneeling to face the priest, the lady speaks in absolute confidence and secrecy to a screen beyond which the man listens and offers spiritual advice. A confessional is a small, enclosed booth used for the Sacrament of Penance, often called confession, or Reconciliation. Usually, the priest and penitent are in separate compartments and speak to each other through a grid or lattice and a crucifix hangs over the grille. But here, a screen grille inserted in it separates the two. The penitent may be able to see the priest through the screen, but the priest can usually never see the penitent - hearing instead of the person's sinful admissions.

  • A young, vulnerable-looking youth stands close to two members of a local Evangelical church who are using a carpet warehouse as a temporary Ministry. Rolls of carpets and rugs are behind these Christians as the two officials practice the 'laying on of hands' to cleanse the soul of their young convert during a religious meeting in Newport, Wales. As the ceremony takes place when this boy is persuaded to accept Jesus into his life, two retail signs proclaim the prices and credit terms of the household items. The laying on of hands is a religious practice found throughout the world in varying forms. In Christian churches, this practice is used as both a symbolic and formal method of invoking the Holy Spirit during baptisms, healing services, blessings, and ordination of priests, ministers, elders, deacons, and other holy church ceremonies.

  • Holy Week or Semana Santa, in Santiago Atitlan, Guatemala, is a mix of Catholicism blended with traditional Mayan culture. Semana Santa is the time where god sky (Jesucristo nahual) has been sacrificed and his twin brother god earth, the Rilaj Mam, or Maximon, takes over while Jesus awaits ressurection. The effigy of the "dirty eating" saint Maximon is visited by pilgrims during the Holy Week celebrations in Santiago Atitlan, Guatemala. His exact origin is unknown, but he is thought to be a blend of ancient Maya gods, Pedro de Alvarado and the biblical Judas. In return for taking on the problems of the people, he is offered cigarettes and alcohol to cleanse him from the sins and pain he has to take from visiting pilgrims.

  • A disused boat now serving as a shed for a local fisherman sits upside down on the beach on Holy Island, on 27th September 2017, on Lindisfarne Island, Northumberland, England. Local fishermen on Holy Island considered it a sin to send boats to the junkyard. They instead found a way to transform their old herring boats into perfect little storage sheds for their nets, tools, and other equipment. The Holy Island of Lindisfarne, also known simply as Holy Island, is an island off the northeast coast of England. Holy Island has a recorded history from the 6th century AD; it was an important centre of Celtic and Anglo-saxon Christianity. After the Viking invasions and the Norman conquest of England, a priory was reestablished.

  • Masatsugu Okutani, 41 performs a waterfall purification ceremony at Kiyo-Taki waterfall. Purification is one of the most important aspects of Shinto as well as being at the core of Japanese culture. There are many different ways to purify oneself. Amongst them: The Grand purification ceremony conducted at the end of June and end of December each year. Purification at water fountain before entering any given sanctuary, also purification at waterfalls, rivers or at sea. The concept of purification is completely different to the one considered by western societies. In Japan, to purify means removing ones rationality and maximize ones sensitivity, and the condition of purifying is when one’s sensitivity is maximized. The reason why sensitivity is important is because there is no rationality in nature and one’s sensitivity is the source and the core of vital force. In this sense, when Japanese say purification, there is no link or reference with so-called sin in the Christian sense. Among Japanese culture, this is the core and commonality. For example, Japanese tea ceremony. The objective is to become one with the host and guest which is impossible, but is possible when both could maximize their sensitivities because when it maximized, there is no feeling of individual, no feeling of time.
