Description

Limitless Africans is a documentary photography series about LGBTQ African immigrants, refugees, and asylum seekers in North America, Europe, and the Caribbean. Photographed over 6 years in 10 countries, the series documents the lives and experiences of 50 LGBTQ African immigrants and places their narratives in conversation with precolonial African notions of LGBTQ people as the gatekeepers, shamans, and healers of their communities, combatting contemporary ideas that it is "un-African" to be LGBTQ. 

Jihan – Trans Algerian Man (Pronouns: he)

Brussels, Belgium (2017)

“ For me Limitless in an important project for the next generations. That they can have some faces, some references and not waste time as we did because we were scared or we felt alone and/or ashamed. We grew up with only caucasian and heteronomative representations, so that is hard sometimes to realize that we will never match this limited model. For the people who are isolated, it can be very difficult. However when we have access to very positive, strong images, that resemble us or to which we can identify, it really gives hope and momentum. ”
