From Here to Timbuktu
The saying "from here to Timbuktu" generates images of remote and exotic places. Timbuktu is located at the edge of the Sahara dessert, in the country of Mali. It became Africa's most mythical city because it was a centre for trading and Islamic learning. In the days when the saying started it was very difficult for Europeans to reach the secluded city. In 1824, the Paris-based Société de Géographie offered 10,000 francs to the first non-Muslim to reach Timbuktu and return with information about it. The on-going photographic project explores quirky details and whimsical moments of everyday life in an African urban environment. Each image is taken with a different analogue camera, in different locations, as I travel across North Africa to Timbuktu.
