In July 2024, I was invited to Alagoinhas, Bahia to celebrate and observe the a celebration of Marujo a caboco celebrated by indigenous people and followers of the Candomblé religion. Marujo is depicted as a sailor with charisma and swagger. In these images capture moments of preparation for the celebration, the intensity and joy of these spirits present in the Ilê. I capture moments of collective joy and reverence and intimate moment of stillness and reverence.
