Documentary reportage photographer with a keen interest in creative writing and curating, Letitia’s interests stem from issues involving the African Diasporas and developing art studies within the African communities and countries.
Drawing strong influences and research from novelists of African descent, female empowering communities and charities, she aspires to open a gate within the photography industry for Congolese born and residing artists. Currently researching into the archival history of Congo Belge stored at the Royal Museum of Belgium, gaining experience into in-depth research and archiving which she is ready to use within project lead work.
