We received Ebunoluwa Akinbo at our office today. @ebunakinbo is a documentary photographer & filmmaker with an interest in exploring societal and cultural issues as well as questions of identity.
By reconstructing portraits & illustrations of notable female figures in Nigeria, @ebunakinbo takes a look at the lives of women whose heroic actions defined their times & challenged aspects of patriarchy in the past & present-day Lagos. 👉https://t.co/NLItXWxuza
Three female artists (@nengi_nelson, @chidigood, @ebunakinbo) use creative visual art forms to express the challenges women face as they navigate in an urban environment dominated by patriarchal norms and structures. 👉 https://t.co/Aad9rSPjc7
@photoshelter@pollyirungu@BlkWomenPhoto Hello everyone, I’m Ebunoluwa Akinbo, a documentary photographer and photojournalist from Nigeria, based in Lagos, Nigeria. Here’s my portfolio https://t.co/cYoGwzIFKH nice to e-meet everyone😊
The influence of colonialism is evident especially in architecture, religion, education, from pre to post colonial times. Badary was one of the major entry points, through the Atlantic ocean, for the colonial masters into Lagos and Nigeria.

@shotbyshaun@VIIAcademy I remember when I decided to pick up the camera after university, my family and friends thought I didn't know what I was doing. There was no way I could justify that photography is a "dignifying" profession just like medicine, law, engineering...
@shotbyshaun@VIIAcademy The @VIIAcademy gave me more confidence in my career as a photojournalist and a documentary photographer. That feeling of belonging to a community and knowing that you can reach out to get direction and clarity for your career path.
@shotbyshaun@VIIAcademy@VIIAcademy has helped a person like me with their scholarships. Someone like me who has the talent, skill and passion but can't afford the knowledge as an emerging photographer.
@shotbyshaun@VIIAcademy I knew I had to get some knowledge and a platform to grow my passion. Photography is expensive, the education is expensive cos photography in itself is inexhaustible. Our equipment are expensive because science and technology keeps evolving.
