Fabrice Monteiro is a photographer and visual artist who lives and works in Dakar Senegal. In 2013, he began a project in Senegal called The Prophecy to raise awareness in the local population of the serious environmental scourges that the country suffers as well as the consequences of excessive consumption. Monteiro creates characters that emerge from oil slicks, garbage dumps and dry landscapes, and then photographs them to deliver a warning and empowerment message to humanity. The colorful series unquestionably awakens the collective consciousness. Monteiro’s goal is to continue his project around the world and thus involve all cultures and continents in a dialogue on a global scale. In his series "The Prophecy," between the terrifying visions of a world strangled by waste and the highly stylized portraits resurrecting a forgotten history, Fabrice addresses questions of society, politics, religion, and identity.
