Larry Racioppo photographs religious rituals and environments because they reflect a search for spiritual identity and a sense of belonging in a decidedly secular age. According to Mr. Racioppo, “As a former Roman Catholic, I am drawn to the storefront churches, street shrines, and home altars of those who, despite all evidence to the contrary, believe in the existence of a beneficent and loving god. A desire for emotional connection, no matter what form it takes, is the driving force behind these religious expressions. It is the same reason I photograph them.”
