Meet the photographer who transforms imagination into reality and embodies representation
For kids, watching a movie or an animated film is something always exhilarating. It brings out the best in them and puts a smile on their faces.
They get immersed in films in such a way that they build bonds with characters that resonate well with them.
They aspire to become like those characters and as they grow up, the bonds they created significantly impact their development and childhood. Films simply stimulate their creativity, interests, and imagination.
However, for black children and especially girls there’s always a void despite there being a bond. A void that particularly springs up due to the lack of diversity and representation.
