The Truth (Single)
DESCRIPTION
In this striking image, we see a Nigerian person with albinism, seated calmly on a stool. He is depicted “unzipping” his white skin on his back to reveal black skin beneath—an evocative and bold metaphor. This powerful visual challenges the often superficial lens through which people with albinism are viewed. It asserts a fundamental truth: his identity, his culture, and his Africanness run deeper than skin. Through this act of self-revelation, Ifeanyi confronts the viewer with the question—how do you define belonging?
AUTHOR
I am a freelance photographer working in Germany and Nigeria. I studied advertising photography in Germany and most of my works are connected to the subject of life style and conceptual photography. In 2007, I set up my professional photo studio, YAB-Photography. Since 2021 I am also active as a photographer and media designer in Germany.
But apart from commercial photography I have also been working on personal projects and on visualizing my own ideas.
