Presentación sobre la serie fotográfica

CONNECTED SOULS
Búsqueda de identidad: ¿existe una relación entre el país de origen de la diáspora y el nuevo país? ¿Cómo expresa la diáspora su sentido de pertenencia en diferentes sociedades?, La diáspora como influenciadora: ¿cómo puede la diáspora contribuir positivamente a sus sociedades mediante el uso de la tecnología?
In the times of a heavy influence of a post colonial era, it has been a great leap for Africans living in the diaspora to communicate, eat, enhance their standard of living and to cater for their accommodation needs. In this series of photographs, I explore the overlapping contrasts of poverty and wealth. On the one hand the people are living in abject poverty, however, technology and infrastructure
seems to be evolving in a certain direction. It brings the question of how do we asa society neglect basic needs over multinational projects, which only benefit a few? Vegetable sales and the background of a cluttered and chaotic infrastructure/buildings, overpower him.Powerlines, telephone towers are erect. In the background a community farms , keeping to their traditions of their roots and although of migration, they are still using their skills which they were handed down by their forefathers. Community, connection,cultivation,care.
