Mozambique Movement
Here is a video of Kupfula Photography’s second exhibition: Mozambique Movement. The idea is to give all of you who missed the show a sense of what it looked like.
The show took place at the Fortaleza (Praca 25 de Junho) in Maputo between 3 and 6 April 2008. There was a couple of hundred people at the opening, filling the rooms and making some great comments. Have a look at the Noticias (main Mozambique daily paper) review of the exhibition here, they describe it as, “An exhibition of great technical and aesthetic quality”!
“Mozambique Movement” is made up exclusively of photos from Mozambique that capture movement, whether that is physical, social or political. The idea was to capture a dynamic society in development and move away from static images that we have all become familiar with. The exhibition includes photos from around Mozambique: north to south, urban to rural, industrial to social to try and capture this dynamism and juxtapose images in order to challenge the viewer’s perspective of Mozambique. Each member was given 4 slots at the exhibition with the remaining spaces being filled through a competition.
