Exhibition design for Chronicle of a Revolt (Chronique d'une Révolte) at Raw Material Company, Dakar, Senegal
The exhibition Chronicle of a Revolt: photographs of a season of revolt was a time document of a season of intense political and social activity that led to the peaceful democratic outcome of the recent presidential election in Senegal in 2012. Twenty photographers presented their stories of this process of social and political battle. The exhibition was a tale of Senegal’s commitment to democracy, social dialogue and stability combined with a strong desire for change of leadership and respect of constitutional laws.
For the exhibition we designed signage, invitations, posters and a book.
