what about my descendants?
My main roots trace back to Benin, West Africa, where remains a constant inspiration over the years, since I’m a kid.
what is my work about?
Through my photographic practice, I’ve developed a creative imaginary and a visual language, which is consistent in both observational and unstaged documentation, extended to conceptual productions in various scales.
where to purchase any of it?
A photo book is being prepared, side-projects are ongoing.
A selection of my work is available here, and on request by e-mail.
Limited edition prints, signed and numbered, available on request.
