Soungalo Afah NIMI, Burkina Faso, 2024

SYNOPSIS

The stone is a companion of humanity. We come with the stone, we live on the stone, and we also progress thanks to the stone. If mankind wanted to invent the stone today, it would have the technical and chemical means to do so. However, the duty to preserve it remains essential, as it holds great significance and symbolism. The stone is a witness and a companion to the evolution of humanity as a whole.
