It's been a minute! But yeah I'm PRETTY stoked about this project. The fact that it was shot on film adds several layers of intrinsic value. And
@sekyii eye IS marvelous. It was a pleasure working with everyone on this.

MANJU x BURBERRY
.
For this month's Black History Month UK, MANJU
@manjujournal tells a story of black identity in today’s Africa; the fragments of this identity and history shared across the continent in partnership with BURBERRY
@burberry on the theme #Together&ONE.
Heeding inspiration from prolific photographers, Kwame Brathwaite & Philip Kwame Apagya, who have both respectively contributed to the empowerment of black beauty, movement and style!
Each image stands alone and within the collection, foregrounding and questioning the differing dynamics of class, wealth, mental health, education, motherhood and unity.
A huge Thank you to Riccardo Tisci
@riccardotisci & the wonderful team at BURBERRY & MANJU.
