Cameroonian photographer and visual artist Martin Abega presents a body of work that transforms image into material. Combining photography with textiles, embroidery, cowrie shells and charcoal, he stages photographic compositions and object-based pieces that investigate metamorphosis of body and mind. Themes of ordeal, fragility, trace, transmission and regeneration recur, often through the female figure as emblem. Curated by Ngalula Mafwata, the work opens a contemplative space that asks what remains after transformation.
