Afroromance

The AfroRomance Collection is a sequel to AJABENG’s debut full collection Anthology and seeks to further develop aesthetic themes first introduced by the former collection. It is a nostalgic ode to unfiltered romantic African love as intimately captured by the lenses of the continent’s most celebrated visual artists. Inspired by the work of Senegalese filmmaker Mati Diop and Ghanaian photographer James Barnor, the collection attempts to capture the essence and blissfulness of young African love as masterfully as Diop does in her film Atlantic and as Barnor often did for Drum Magazine.
