The Saturday Ritual is an ongoing documentary project exploring moments of ritual and collective practice within different religions and cultural traditions. The work focuses on recurring gestures, gatherings, and transitions that structure everyday life beyond the ordinary rhythm of the week.

Rather than approaching ritual as spectacle or belief system, this project observes it as a shared human need for pause, repetition, and belonging. Attention is given to small details: movements, clothing, waiting, proximity, and the quiet tension between public space and private devotion.

The photographs are made from within the flow of these moments, without interruption or staging. By staying close and allowing time to pass, the work reflects how rituals create temporary spaces of meaning, where individuals become part of something larger than themselves.

The Saturday Ritual is less concerned with explaining traditions than with observing how ritual continues to shape contemporary life through presence, repetition, and shared time.
