My Way

  • Photographer
    Angela Varricchio, United Kingdom
  • Prize
    Honorable Mention

My Way is a personal and intimate exploration of El Camino de Santiago (the Way of St. James), a Christian pilgrimage popular during the Middle Age to expiate sins and ask pardon or miraculous conversion. In a historical period in which capitalistic materialism deeply imbues lifestyle, I started El Camino de Santiago because I felt trapped in my hectic life's routine, speed, and superficiality. This intimate and lyrical photographic storytelling investigates my slow and intense experience of El Camino as an instinctual need of spiritual search and reconnection with my lost Self.
