Martina Bacigalupo

Gulu Real Art Studio features studio portraits collected by the photographer Martina Bacigalupo from the Gulu Real Art Studio in Gulu, Uganda. Edited from hundreds of discarded, faceless images—the faces were originally cut out for ID photos—the distinctions of clothing and pose in each image reveal markers of self-definition. Bacigalupo later returned to Gulu to interview clients of the studio and their stories describe the political, economic, and social conditions common to contemporary East Africa. Essays by Martina Bacigalupo and Sandrine Perrot.
