Spanning over a decade (1994 - 2005), the series Filhos do Reino depicts various religious rituals and festivals throughout Brazil. Religious syncretism has always been a central element of Latin American culture, and as such it captivated important photographers such as Sebastião Salgado, Cristina García Rodero and Walter Firmo.
Cannalonga's work deserves a prominent place in this rich tradition. In his images, we feel a melancholy that permeates every gesture, every look. A melancholy rooted in the rich history of the country. A melancholy that provides a foundation for people's faith all while revealing the deepest hopes for its ultimate overcoming.
Cannalonga's detailed documentation of festivals and rituals is an attempt to register human interactions and feelings, both in the midst of these ceremonies and in the larger spectrum of daily life, revealing the intrinsic elements of the soul of Brazilian people.
Photography prints sold in galleries can appear inaccessible or too elitist. From this observation, The Analog Gallery envisioned and launched TRIPTYQUES, an unprecedented access to the work of emerging and established photographers through an affordable triptych of small prints.
Each artist has entrusted the gallery with three artworks to offer an inexpensive entry point to their work. Together, we carefully chose the papers and printing techniques that best represent their work and worked hand in hand with them to offer you a peek into their universe, inspirations, emotions and stories.
