Prince Gyasi

In this issue’s Photographers Spotlight we bring you the Ghanaian photographe, Prince Gyasi. With his expert mastery over colours and tone, Prince is able to bring to life the mundane elements of everyday life in a way that is both captivating and thought provoking.

His style is very simplistic; he places a subject at the central point of his composition- usually dark in complexion- and complements this with a vibrant foreground or background. In this way he is able to successfully colour block, ensuring that the viewer pays equal attention to every component that comprises the piece. Even more remarkable is the knowledge that Prince manages to capture these shots armed with just his iPhone.

Prince shoots in Ghana, show casing the street life of Accra and its inhabitants which are the heart beat of the city. With his edits and message, he transforms these people into powerful figures making them almost regal-like.

His work has been seen worldwide and he has previously worked with some editing giants such as PicsArt and VSCO. Prince uses his talent and reach to give back to his community; he is the co-founder of Boxed Kids, a non-profit campaign with the aim of giving creative young people in Jamestown the chance of an

education.
