“Recaptioning Congo: African Stories and Colonial Pictures” won the 2023 Paris Photo-Aperture PhotoBook Awards Jurors' Special Mention.
“Recaptioning Congo” takes on the crucial task of reclaiming the colonial visual narratives of the Congo, providing an extensive, multi-layered examination of this complicated photographic history. Published as a companion to an exhibition at FOMU Antwerp, the volume functions as a dialogue between texts by contemporary Congolese writers Sinzo Aanza, In Koli Jean Bofane, and Annie Lulu, and the historical archival photographs, breathing new meaning into images created and received through a biased, colonizing lens.
