Casa dos Direitos - Bissau (House of the Right - Bissau)

Last year, in company of some photographers (professionals or not), I participated in an exhibition about the daily life of Guineans women. Below are some pictures that I had proposed.

At the beginning of February, I’ll go to Bissau to organize a workshop on the history of "Casa dos Direitos" (House of the Rights), which was, for years, the first police station in Bissau but also a prison. Back to Guinea is a true gift for me and I really thank ACEP who continues to trust me (And I ask myself: Why I only work for the Portuguese?).
