Pamela Tulizo’s latest series of photographs started with a question. “I asked myself, why are woman in my community in particular, and African woman in general, so strong?” says Tulizo, an artist and photographer from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. “Where does this strength come from?”
Growing up in Goma in eastern DRC, Tulizo was informed and inspired by the women she was surrounded by, including her mother, her sisters, her mother’s friends and her neighbours.
