Using the eye of her camera lens, Ifeoma discovers the rich diversity of African life and culture.

 

Ifeoma introduces people to different aspects of her culture by exploring familiar themes like the alphabet, numbers, colours and the family.

 

Children can effortlessly absorb information about another culture -finding similarities and enjoying the differences.

Ifeoma, from Eastern Nigeria. completed a business management course and trained as a photographer.

 

Her photographic studies of Africa takes months to complete - she and her children travel back to Africa, and walk from village to village, talking with people they meet, waiting to find just the right photograph.
