Andrea Torrei

Despite its long and tragic history, Ghana today is a photographer’s paradise. Andrea Torrei set out to capture the everyday lives of its people; the colours, activities and sounds instinctively associated with the place. Her intense and vibrant series speaks of a country where life is not simple; yet a country where people can still dream.
