Visual Exploration of the African Identity

“What does it mean to be African today? Who are we once we are stripped of the expectations, the prejudices and the assumptions? There are stories behind every skin and this exhibition brings that to the fore in conceptual and creative ways,” founder of PICHA, Josiane Faubert, said.

In July, PICHA opened submissions for the SKIN exhibitions to all photographers in Africa and the diaspora, amateur to professional. The twenty selected images that will be exhibited were curated out of the over 100 submissions by our panel of judges.All work will be for sale and featured artists will benefit from an international platform as well as commissions from every sale made of their work at the exhibitions to be held in Accra, Nairobi and Cape Town.
