Inspiration for this shoot came from the theme of sisterhood in Ghana, which is central to Kpledzo – a ritual procession of sisters in Prampram, Accra. Dressing the same never looked cooler.

These images were created in collaboration with Ghanaian photographer, Francis Kokoroko, and local sign writing artist, "Don." It presents a hyper-real dramatisation of domestic life. The shoot pays homage to the work of 80s/90s Ghanaian studio photographer, Philip Kwame Apagya, who shot his subjects in front of opulent painted backgrounds.
