Senegal. Saint Louis. June 13th 2013. Isabouckar creates a new reality, it brings the inside and outside world together. In 2013 I travelled to Saint-Louis, Senegal to meet and photograph Senegalese dancers. I was looking for dancers who moved from their inner world and express through dance their emotions, expression and authenticity, a dance originated from the inside. Besides that it was important for me that the dancers had a truly connection with their environment so that there will be a synergy in which I can connect with my camera. The locations are characteristic for Saint Louis.
