A few words about your artistic career

I learnt photography when I was very young from my uncle, whose studio was the only one in the city in the 1990s. I assisted him and we photographed people's lives. It was only natural that I should pursue a career as a photographer.

How long have you been an artist?

I became a professional photographer in 2011 during the crisis in Côte d'Ivoire.

Why did you apply for this scholarship? How will the scholarship support you?

I applied for this grant because Africalia is an excellent partner, to spread the message I'm getting across through this project and also to publicise my work. The grant is a great financial support that will enable me to complete my budget and carry out this PALUCOVID project.

What are your concrete artistic objectives after this residency?

The aim is for this photographic work to be included in an exhibition to keep a record of the action taken.
