*Izwe: From Africa
*izwe/amazwe [?i:zwe] [a?ma:zwe] In the Zulu language means: country, earth, national territory, people, population.

Proyecto 34°S, Africa Media Online and Nadia Strier are pleased to present this exhibition of young African photographers. The images shown by these new generations bring us closer to proposing ways of representations in which the established limits between the urban and the rural become porous borders, across which Africans move as they imagine defiant forms of thinking about the intimacy, silence, aesthetic and history of a continent that is for many unknown and exotic. A different and heterogeneous view of their native Africa from its own citizens.
