Contemporary Cuban photographers engage with the religious subject matter from a range of perspectives. One end of that spectrum is defined by documentary photography, such as the work of Jorge Luis Álvarez Pupo, Raúl Cañibano, Elio Delgado, Humberto Mayol, and Ramón Pacheco. The other is marked by a conceptual approach to the African heritage (Pedro Abascal, Ricardo Elías and Liudmila y Nelson). Marta María Pérez Bravo and René Peña inscribe the symbols of a genuinely Afrocuban language into their self-portraits, while Kattia García investigates about female role models in the Santería. Juan Carlos Alóm never draws on any specific ritual practices, however, his visual vocabulary shows a spiritual connection to the African legacy. And Sandra Ramos, who has become famous for her sculpture and print work, has turned to video and digital photography to capture the pilgrimage to the church of San Lázaro
