British photographer Johny Pitts showcases his exhibition "Black Bricolage" at the Maison Européenne de la Photographie in Paris. This project represents over twenty years of exploration into what it means to be Black and European. Pitts traveled through major cities including Paris, Berlin, Lisbon, Marseille, and Brussels, gathering a diverse collection of photographs, personal writings, and documents. His work provides a thoughtful reflection on the complex identities and experiences of Black Europeans.
The exhibition highlights everyday moments often overlooked in mainstream narratives, offering a deeper understanding of cultural identity and belonging across Europe. Through his visual and textual storytelling, Pitts presents a nuanced portrayal that emphasizes shared experiences within the Black European community, challenging simplified or stereotypical representations. "Black Bricolage" serves as both a personal journey and a broader commentary on identity in contemporary Europe.
