The name kwacha derives from the Nyanja, Bemba, and Tonga language word for "dawn", alluding to the Zambian nationalist slogan of a "new dawn of freedom", symbolizes fresh beginnings and the hope for continued progress. Zambia's currency is also called the Kwacha. This series reflects on Zambian culture, combining social commentary with cultural symbols that celebrate the country’s rich heritage and ongoing growth. Through each piece, I explore Zambia’s traditions, symbolism and daily life.
More coming soon.
