Altari

Enters the rural landscapes of Campania, Italy, where depopulation whispers of a fading past.

In Altari, Paolo Covino presents a photographic topology of bedrooms, each a sanctuary of tradition and heritage. As the elderly cling to their homes, customs, and superstitions, Covino captures the essence of a community in transition. These bedrooms, once revered as places of worship for a fading past, now stand as relics of a bygone era.

Each photograph, documents the intersection of social, cultural, and historical change, where the weight of history threatens to vanish into the ether.
