Resounding with Echoes
Sojourns across Africa and America
Through a nuanced interplay of black-and-white and color photography, Richard Hay Jr. traces quiet correspondences between West Africa and the Americas, offering a lyrical meditation on everyday life across geography and time.
Framed by an essay by renowned Nigerian author Emmanuel Iduma, the images are situated within a broader reflective context, collapsing temporal distance and proposing photography as a means of attentive witnessing—one that honors the ordinary while acknowledging the layered histories embedded within it.
