Photography

Congolese photography is redefining itself by rejecting colonial narratives and developing its own visual language rooted in local perspectives.

Despite limited resources, artists are reclaiming their history and identity while gaining recognition both at home and internationally.

Frustrated by Morocco’s rigid educational system of the 1990s, art teacher Hicham Benohoud used photography as a pedagogical tool, creating a makeshift darkroom in his classroom to foster collaborative and hands-on learning, encouraging students to engage with creativity and identity.
