THE MANIFESTO
We do not seek fame. We do not seek success. We do not seek validation. Disciples of our own abilities. We defy those to say that we cannot, that we are too old, too young, too different, too much, too little. We seek the choice to choose the journey and live beneath a firmament of possibilities of our own creation.
We do not crack the ceiling. We remove the roof for everyone because time is not a solitary path from life and death. It is a circle of inspiration passed from generation to generation. So stop the clock. Do not accept the gospel of those who don't. Create, inspire, lend. Lend not when to stop, but when to go, when to strike, afraid or unafraid. Our assistance may be finite, but example can be infinite.
We're not born timeless. We become timeless.
The manifesto
Hatutafuti umaarufu. Hatutafuti mafanikio. Hatutafuti uthibitisho. Wanafunzi wa uwezo wetu wenyewe. Tunakaidi wale kusema kwamba hatuwezi, kwamba sisi ni wazee sana, wadogo sana, tofauti sana, wengi sana, wadogo sana. Tunatafuta chaguo la kuchagua safari na kuishi chini ya anga ya uwezekano wa uumbaji wetu wenyewe.
Hatuna kupasuka dari. Tunaondoa paa kwa kila mtu kwa sababu wakati sio njia ya pekee kutoka kwa maisha na kifo. Ni mduara wa msukumo unaopitishwa kutoka kizazi hadi kizazi. Kwa hivyo acha saa. Usikubali injili ya wale ambao hawaikubali. Unda, hamasisha, kopesha. Usikopeshe wakati wa kuacha, lakini wakati wa kwenda, wakati wa kupiga, kuogopa au kutoogopa. Usaidizi wetu unaweza kuwa na mwisho, lakini mfano unaweza kuwa usio na mwisho.
Hatujazaliwa bila wakati. Tunakuwa bila wakati.
So let us mark the passage of our own time by those who defy it. We do not seek fame. We do not seek success.
We do not seek validation.

Kuhusu
Prince Gyasi
Msanii wa taswira mzaliwa wa Ghana Prince Gyasi, ambaye alijipatia umaarufu kwa picha zake za kusisimua na zenye nguvu, nyingi zikiwa zimepigwa katika mji aliozaliwa wa Accra, atapiga picha ya Kalenda ya Pirelli ya 2024.
Msichana huyo mwenye umri wa miaka 28, ambaye amepanda kwa kasi hadi umaarufu wa kimataifa, anatumia rangi za ujasiri na tofauti katika sanaa yake. Picha zake husimulia hadithi za picha zinazovutia anga na uchangamfu wa jamii na kizazi chake huku zikilenga kupinga masimulizi ya kitamaduni kuhusu Afrika, usomi katika sanaa na maadili ya urembo ya kimagharibi.
Ingawa chaguo lake la vifaa sasa linaenea hadi kamera za kisasa, Gyasi alianza kupiga picha akiwa na umri wa miaka 16 kwa kutumia simu mahiri.
