Jean-Vincent Simonet
Kitengela
Colorful and carnivalesque, Simonet's images of the Kitengela glass village explore a creative utopia where art and nature intertwine
Founded in the early 1980s by Nani Croze, Kitengela is a five-acre village in south Nairobi crafted from recycled glass. In this vibrant photobook with playful open binding, Jean-Vincent Simonet (born 1991) captures Kitengela's multifaceted narrative, portraying its simultaneous uses as a home, workplace and sculpture garden.
