The Prophecy, by Fabrice Monteiro, is a series of hypnotic, environmental-themed photographs that represent the intersection of art, fashion, mythology, and nature. Based in Dakar, the Beninese-Belgian photographer collaborated with a collective of young artists to depict some of Senegal’s worst-hit areas in order to raise awareness of environmental concerns. The Prophecy digital exhibit will highlight stills from the series, and how Monteiro and his team created each image. Marcia Juzga’s short film of the same name will also screen during the New York African Film Festival 2015 – Film Society Of Lincoln Center (May 6, 2015-May 12, 2015), Mayles Cinema (May 14, 2015-May 17, 2015), BAMCINÉMATEK (May 22, 2015-May 25, 2015)
