B.1986

Rahima Gambo has a photojournalism background, particularly in documentary projects, which undeniably informs her work. Her practice is multidisciplinary, utilizing photography, film, video installation, drawing, sculpture, and sound to explore the cartography of documentary storytelling, delving into themes such as post-colonialism, identity, gender, politics, and shared narratives within Nigeria. Rather than relying solely on a visual approach, she prioritises sensory experiences that occur between objects to construct an alternative, non-linear space that eschews the limitations imposed by conventional documentary photography and narrative structures. Through this method, she seeks to challenge the notion of capturing reality through the camera and to create works that transcend preconceived ideas of time and space. Gambo questions how new ways of seeing might be facilitated by shifting away from the conventional camera-subject dynamic towards a more symbiotic relationship between photographer and subject. She advocates for a porous bodily engagement with the subject matter, one that allows for playful exploration and offshoots and listening to and becoming with the subject. ...
