Reginald Kofi Boateng, a Ghanaian artist, captures the essence of identity and heritage in his recent project set in Dansoman, Accra. Using the afro comb as a central motif, he emphasizes its historical significance in African culture, representing beauty and self-expression. The model, Joshua Adjei, embodies empowerment, and the photography style showcases dreamlike colors designed to evoke a sense of imagination. Boateng's work invites viewers to appreciate their roots while moving forward, celebrating the juxtaposition of tradition and modernity.
The afro comb, or pick, is a powerful emblem of African pride and heritage, representing grooming, self-expression, and beauty from ancient African civilizations.
The surreal tones of green sky and purple ground were designed to evoke a dreamlike quality, symbolizing a call to honor our roots while boldly stepping into the future.
