The rites of Holy Week in Sicily are ancient representations of the most significant moments of the Passion of Jesus Christ, described in the Gospels, from his arrest by the Romans to the Resurrection. They are part of the religious events organized in the various towns and cities of Sicily even if many of these are carried out by local brotherhoods without the support of the official church. Many of these events are registered in the Intangible Heritage Register of Sicily defined by Unesco.
My name’s Roberto Scordino and I’m a professional photographer born and based in Rome. I started to photograph only at the end of 2015 but I have worked for a long time with multimedia projects working with multinational institutions and brands and have been a VJ starting in 1999 back to the times of vhs. For years I have been interested in socio-anthropological research in the world of subcultures. In the last three years I studied photography, among others, with awards-winners photographers like Paolo Marchetti and I am graduated in the Masterclass held by Fausto Podavini and Giovanni Cocco.
