In 2014, what began as a modest challenge—photographing the churches along Venice’s Grand Canal—soon expanded into a comprehensive project encompassing every sestiere in the city and beyond. From Murano to Burano and Torcello, from the islands of Pellestrina to Chioggia, and deep into the northern lagoon to areas such as Lio Piccolo and Cavallino-Treporti, I photographed their churches and houses of worship, regardless of whether they remained in service, had been deconsecrated, or repurposed.
