When William Ropp is asked “Why Africa?”, he tells of a great-great-grandfather who sailed up the Niger from Bamako to Tombouktou, crossing Senegal. This grandfather, Louis Jacolliot, is a family legend, a memory that leaves its mark on young William's imagination. And, as guarantor of the shadows of the past, the photographer shows us a living Africa, with all its restraints and mysteries.
