Lagos Photo Journal: Fawaz Oyedeji

Fawaz Oyedeji is a documentary photographer, photojournalist, and historian from Nigeria whose work centers on exploring political expression in Africa. His work examines how people interact with power, understanding it not just as a repressive force but as one that operates actively within various levels of social structures, such as political authority, social class, institutions, and events. AFMAC had the pleasure of working with Fawaz over the course of a week in April 2025, documenting the workshop, the city, and the people of Lagos.
