Vanishing Songs of the Warriors book by Bobby Pall
By Bobby PallVanishing Songs of the Warriors is indeed a depiction of beauty, strength, depth, dignity, truth and the values of people united by love, culture, unity and compassion,” were the words of Education Cabinet Secretary Amina Mohammed, the guest of honour at the launch.
His art showcased powerful photographic images that depict African culture and heritage in its truest form. Cast in black and white photography, it neither exaggerates nor attempts to embellish the lives of those his images represent. Rather, it educates and transports one into a visual world of a dignified way of life by a people with little material possession but the resilience of the human spirit and the sanctity of communal life and sacrifice.
He believes that the real story of Africa is yet to be told. “It is an extraordinary tale that cannot be told from the outside and takes us inside that story and guides us through this fascinating journey of discovery.”
Mr Pall’s art work and portraits are filled with photos as well as with people struggling to eke out an existence on terrain that’s semi-arid and barren, which he says inspire him from his travels across the continent.
“I often went back and stayed with families that I’d gotten close to during my previous tours.”
Asked what a “warrior” is, he said it is a term that transcends gender. “It can refer to anyone, man or woman, who stands strong in the face of adversity and lives with courage, integrity, dignity and commitment to protecting the lives of others. That could include mothers, shepherds, fishermen and everyone else contributing to keeping their community and family alive.”
