The CAP prize is the international award for Contemporary African Photograpy and has been presented annually since 2012 to five photographers. This year’s winners are Nadia Ettwein, Yassmin Forte, Maheder Haileselassie, Carlos Idun-Tawiah and now two-time winner Léonard Pongo. Each of their projects was created on the African continent, or engages with the African diaspora. Below, the artists introduce themselves and some of the inspirations that inform their work.
