Abstract

Commissioned by the 2012 Action Field Kodra festival in Thessaloniki, Greece to

contemporary works by five internationally established photographic artists from
Nigeria, Uganda, Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia, who revisit stereotypical
colonial portraiture to question its validity and place in national history and culture.
