Waka Waka à Genève
The Event
Join us for the Geneva stop of the WAKA WAKA book tour, celebrating the premiere of the stunning new photo book by StoryMaster Ernest Danjuma Enebi, featuring over 300 masterfully captured images spanning almost two decades of travel across the African continent.
Hosted in collaboration with The Storyboard Collective, this special stop of the global book tour will feature a riveting conversation between author Danjuma Enebi and the book’s cover muse, Geneva native - Huguette Umutoni.
The Book
WAKA WAKA is a visual meditation on movement and a journey across geographies, cultures, and time. Spanning more than fifteen years and over fifteen African countries, the project reflects an ongoing search for what it means to see and be seen within one’s own landscape. Through the lens of Ernest Danjuma Enebi, WAKA WAKA becomes both an archive and an invitation: a call to witness the ordinary as extraordinary, to find rhythm and dignity in the everyday.
At its core, WAKA WAKA is a work about presence, about seeing Africa not through the lens of lack or potential, but through the fullness of what already is. It is an act of attention, a celebration of texture, humor, and spirit.
In WAKA WAKA, Danjuma offers a portrait of Africa that is at once deeply personal and profoundly collective, a continent in motion, where each photograph becomes both a document and a conversation, a moment and a journey.
