Once Children

My Scholarship entry - in a grown up world.

South Africa | Friday, October 24, 2014 | 5 photos

im a 26 year old "chief Imagineer" using photography as my medium. I was born and bred in Soweto, one of the most iconic townships in South Africa, filled with a lot of cultures and history. I grew up not only with hearing what happened in Soweto back in the apartheid days from generations through my family but I also saw images of that time, some through old newspapers and some in personal family archives, from that I understood how important photography is in documenting human existence. its because of these documents that I am intrigued by other cultures outside of my geography and being interested in capturing them in the same familiar documentation as my own history or at least with the same impact.
