Urban Now: City Life in Congo

Visual Essay: In a collaborative effort between anthropology and photography, a collaboration that resulted in a book and an exhibition , visual artist Sammy Baloji and anthropologist Filip De Boeck reflect on these various –different but simultaneous- narratives of urban place-making. In this joint work we offer a visual study of things that defy verbal narration: the city’s affective landscapes and moods. As such we consider changes in how cities and territories are imagined by different kinds of people in the DRC today.
