ZINE PHOTO #03 COURTYARD
ZINE PHOTO #03
COURTYARD
Description
The Wisdom Preparatory Academy is located in Adedenkpo, in the old city of Accra, Ghana. The contiguous courtyard, surrounded by houses and informal dwellings, is the place where some families live and raise their young children.
At the end of every day of the week, the courtyard is used by a group of young boxers who train hard under the supervision of Ghana’s national boxing coach.
The project of this ZINE PHOTO #03 became independent from a larger work concerning the boxer Emmanuel Danso, one of the members of the group. The images shown here reveal a rich microcosm where we can see the childrens’ games, regular spectators and committed boxers who aspire to recognition and notoriety.

ZINE PHOTO #02
JAMESTOWN
Description
Jamestown was founded in the 17th century and is one of the oldest districts of the city of Accra, Ghana.
In this immense space bordering the sea, a vast community of fishermen live and work, fishing being their main source of survival.
The place, built from a cluster of hundreds of informal slum-like homes, is another microcosm of life where one is only able to enter with the right people. Jamestown is in the process of being reconverted, and local authorities have begun to move housing to other places, generating some tension and dissatisfaction.
The selected images focus on the activity of these fishermen during the low season, an important pause in time to take care of the necessary tools for work.

WISDOM
Description
To enter Wisdom School is to enter a different world. The old building, which was once an important mansion, is now quite damaged. The school was founded in 1986. At the beginning it was intended to accommodate children with soccer skills. However, in 1992, the school was authorized to establish an educational program, with the mandate to teach classes ranging from pre-primary to secondary education. In this project, which is the result of several visits and interaction with teachers and students, we can find a little bit of everything: children playing, individualized tutors and tumultuous classes.
