There is also the photo of the young Prince Gyasi, a mini-me of the photographer, played by the little model Abul Faid Yussif. Against a bright turquoise background, Yussif is depicted playing with miniature versions of some of the objects we find on the calendar pages. In his journey as a visual artist, Gyasi draws on a range of memories and experiences from his childhood in Ghana: from the days spent with his musician grandfather, to working as an assistant to a portrait photographer in the markets of Accra, to… Visiting recording studios and stations, television and radio shows with their parents, gospel musicians. Prince Gyasi did not study photography, but art in the form of painting, sculpture, sculpture and printmaking. He spent his time using his computer’s first drawing program and looking for innovative ways to design using graphics programs. His goal was to develop a style that people could immediately identify with. “I created a bridge between painting and photography,” he said. I satisfy people who love photography but also those who love painting; So I’m creating a new bridge that I wouldn’t just call photographs, but works of art.
