"London-based photographer Peter Li considers the cathedrals, basilicas, and
historic spaces he captures to be “living vessels of light, symmetry, and
time.” Soaring ceilings, gilded filigree, and saintly stained glass windows
both reflect religious traditions and create a sanctuary for such practices.
Whether in the luminous Gothic style or awe-inspiring Baroque, these spaces are
also often architectural marvels, which Li documents through an almost
portrait-like approach.

Many of his panoromas span 180 degrees and offer a symmetric, reflective view
of the space through a meticulous stitching process. This perspective
accentuates the dramatic, all-consuming effect of standing beneath ascendant
rib vaults and majestic columns."
