Persistence Gallery displays images sampling the 1990 book published by the Museum of New Mexico Press.
These photographs document Catholic faith heritage still enduring throughout centuries in the Southwest. Architecture, space, and light combine and create a visceral presence in these places of worship. Distinctive rituals and community traditions still passed on through mayordomos and generation to generation. Similarly -architecture, manifestations of faith, the continuity of ceremony, and a community vitality make for palpable imagery. And so this documentation explores active and abandoned shrines, churches, innumerable rutted roads, and thousands of encuentros of faith and witness. The Persistence of Memory became my journey as well.
