Teaming up with the stunning dark-skinned model Mercy Omondi, the collective effort resulted in captivating headshots that possess such artistic curation that they could easily be mistaken for A.I. art. The post-enhancement of the images, skillfully executed by assistant photographer Joseph Kyule, yielded truly fabulous results. The editorial, titled “Daughters of The Rift,” showcases Mercy adorned in exquisite African head accessories and impeccably styled Afro hairdos. The collaboration brings forth a celebration of stunning African women, portraying a fusion of cultural elegance and modern artistry. The creative synergy of Macharia, Akello, and Kyule transforms the visual narrative into a striking representation of Afro-centric beauty. The images immediately went viral was the caption below explained it all. “DAUGHTERS OF THE RIFT: Throughout African history, beadwork has consistently played an integral role in how different communities express their unique concepts of beauty. In a deliberate effort to expand the boundaries of historical representation, “DAUGHTERS OF THE RIFT” emerges as part of an ongoing Afrofuturistic portrait series. This series envisions the Great Rift Valley without borders and how a beadwork expressive tribe emerges from the engagement of different communities residing in this geological marvel, which spans from Eritrea to Mozambique.” More Articles You Would Love Mugabe Fashion Celebrating His 92nd Birthday Making Waves In South Africa Lanre Da Silva @ Glitz Africa Fashion Week 2014, Day 3 – Ghana, Accra #GAFW2014 View the stunning images below.
