Delphine Diallo // “The photography world is a new world for the world itself….We must realize the limitations we have created within the form….We are often taking more than we give.”

.

Welcome to @thesearcherpodcast, conversations with storytellers, creatives, healers, and others in search of what it all means. On this episode of the show, we speak with Delphine Diallo, a Brooklyn-based French and Senegalese visual artist and photographer. Delphine’s intention is to change the gaze in photography, empowering black women while creating new narratives and experiences for consciousness to expand. Diallo combines artistry with activism, challenging the norms of representation in our society by immersing herself in the realms of anthropology, mythology, religion, science and martial arts.

For this second episode with Delphine, we explore in detail some of the underlying ideas driving her vision, including integrity and consciousness, awareness and trauma, community and connection.
