ROLE: executive producer, Photographer
"The beauty and the pain" is a collection of 35 images that encapsulate the experience of an educator at the Hearts of Gold Children's Hospice, the sole orphanage for children with special needs in Lagos, Nigeria, and that of a photographer capturing life on the streets of Lagos, the most populous city in Nigeria and Africa. These images and stories aim to demystify prevalent prejudices about African reality. From 2012 to 2016, the project has been showcased in over 20 schools and has been exhibited in various museums and universities in São Paulo, Brazil.
