A few words about your artistic career
I'm a self-taught photographer. In my association Africulturban, I learnt the basics of cinema as part of a project called Hip Hop Academy for two years. But after that I was drawn to photography, so I took part in lots of workshops and masterclasses to perfect my skills.
How long have you been an artist?
I've been taking photographs for 8 years now.
Why did you apply for this scholarship? How will the scholarship support you?
For the last 6 months, I've been looking for funding to release my book-photo 'ISSUE DE SECOURS'. So when I was sent the call for applications, I thought it might be an opportunity for me to release a digital version of this project.
What are your concrete artistic objectives after this residency?
After this residency, I'll have my website well organised and I'll have incorporated a photo gallery. This will give you access to exhibitions of my forthcoming projects from the comfort of your own home.
