Being, Seeing, Wandering

Akinbode Akinbiyi’s street photography takes in the world’s major cities, which he explores on foot. His images are visual metaphors ruminating on cultural change, social exclusion, and colonialism’s sociopolitical consequences and its impact on urban planning. Whether he is out and about in Bamako, Berlin, Lagos, or Durban, the photographer uses his camera to investigate social structures in urban spaces.

The book presents key aspects of Akinbiyi’s work since 1990.
