In this episode, London-based Nigerian photographer Elizabeth Okoh talks about how she first began photographing in her childhood, why she left Nigeria to attend university in the UK, her initial difficulties in culturally acclimatising, how lots of her series and her commercial work focus on female empowerment, and how her current exhibition Women on the Frontlines celebrates the unsung heroes of the pandemic.
