In just ten years, Boniface Mwangi has risen from poverty to fame in Kenya. He is known for his powerful photographs and courageous protests, calls for social justice. However, little is known about the person. UnBounded is a collection of eye-catching personal stories that guides us through some of the people, places and events that have shaped Boniface,
easily one of Kenya's most famous photographers and activists. It is a portrait of a child, a man and some human, excruciating and even humorous episodes that he saw and photographed. This book tells the story of two remarkable women - his mother and grandmother - who influenced his character and inspired his desire to raise awareness of poverty,
inequality and corruption. His work as a photo-activist is based on social engagement, collective action and the need for justice. This is the story of a man full of determination and warmth, a man who lives his life to make a difference. Grab a copy for just Ksh 3000 / Image Afrowave My phone rattled. Niaj? Sana'a. What am I supposed to be honored for? I do
a photobook of all my award-winning photos. Ok. It's about time. How far are you in the process? That's true. We work hard with my designer, we have collected photos and we are in the final stages of the layout. We held an online contest and we have a book cover (winning cover design below). I want to collect some content, put it down and we have to be
through. So, I need your help in finalizing and preparing it for printing. Oh! I haven't spoken to Boniface Mwangi in at least two years and then, BOOM TWAFF! I was excited. Ok. Can I see what you've done so that I get up to speed? Sava. I'll send you a PDF. We have a dummy book from the printer to see how it will look. When can you start? My mind was
racing. I was at the tail end of working on a web project for Transparency International. Give me two weeks I tie up the project I'm doing and then we see. Later that day, I received a PDF. Two days go by. Niage's new book? I have a friend, an award-winning photojournalist, who walks past in 2 hours, can you do that? It is important that you come and meet
him. It will give me feedback on the project. Just like that. I left the studio and hurried to PAWA 254. This friend was Gary Knight, a world-renowned, photo-journalist. Gary is a straight shooter. He had already printed twelve photobooks, so he knew what he was talking about. In a quick, one-hour meeting, Gary made a number of things clear. As it was, the
book consisted mainly of Boniface award-winning photography and photo documentaries. Very few people look through the last third of photobooks just looking at photos. You have to have compelling stories. Gary looked at the bound, empty mannequin books, complete with Jacket. It's too big. The dummy had 300 pages the size of A3. If you opened the
book, it covered the coffee table in Bonnie's office. Make the book half that. The book should have a thread of relatable stories. Each story has its own pictures around it. A good book is divided into sections using chapters or group chapters that follow a specific narrative arc through the book. So, especially for coffee table books, the reader may have time to
take only part of the book. The story should be complete with his photos, and the idea presented in a particular section of the book should decide naturally. Bonnie has a lot of friends, and he quickly seeks their advice. In most cases, it makes a decision that is entirely his. On this occasion, after Gary finished with an illuminating review, Bonnie didn't need
much convincing that we were going to make a brand new book. Bonnie! I met Bonifacius Mwongi at the end of 2006. I was part of the team that put together a project known as 24 Nairobi-produced Kwani Trust. Prior to this project, most of the photos we saw in Nairobi were photographed by outsiders looking in. Together with Binyavanga Wainaina, they
took us out for lunch somewhere in southern C and 24 Nairobi was born. Since 2007, a number of well-known Kenyan photographers have come out of this project, and Boniface is one of them. Bonnie ordered and paid me for a website that would display his photos. He never went online. He decided to start PAWA254. Over the years, Boniface has been his
in-the-head with the authorities and with setbacks. Little I knew about Boniface's life was like a movie. Boniface, Armstrong Too and I went to a secret location, in a park near the town of Sultan Hamoud. Everyone had a room. Mine was a print design suite, a double screen with a Wacom tablet. Bonnie's room was the central team where we spent most of our
time. Armstrong's room was a photo library and archive. Bonnie would call relatives and friends that he was in contact with, and I wanted to write the details on the flip chart as he chatted on the phone. Memories were discovered, some questions were persistent, the silence was loud. We gathered information together, late into the night, many times.
Boniface would project history, we would go to the texts and then make a picture of the story that will accompany the texts. I learned that the origin of Boniface is a few kilometers from where my mother was born and where I spent my teenage vacations collecting coffee. As the days wore on and the stories came together, I felt for Bonnie. We slept exhausted
emotionally most days. The book became personal. This book should have been done well. No, not just good, it had to be very We wanted to design a book that allowed photography and text to stand on its own, and yet work together in each section. After the Post on and then reading through a series of books from the vast Boniface Library, one that
captured what I imagined as a book melting Away by Camille Seaman. Let me say this, by the time you finish melting Away, you love the author. This is the connection I wanted the Boniface book to have. The reader needs to empathize and understand the relentless passion and drive of Bonifacia Mwangi. The texts were originally sent to Biko zulu, and
when we got some of them back, they were good, slower and too smooth, too good. I was of the opinion that the voice of Boniface, which consists of short, sharp ideas in typical clipped mtaa grammar was lost in fluid Biko, contemplative style. As this discussion continued, Bonifas contacted Anna Ambima. Anna met Boniface in 2008 when she was a judge of
the CNN/Multichoice African Journalists Awards, where Boniface won the CNN AFRICA PHOTOGRAPHER 2008. The winning photos were about a police raid in Matara as police tracked down Mungjiki operatives who are also in the book. He advised Anna about the book from the very early stage and it brought a balance in history and photography during
the discussion for about two years. Anna is a former journalist who grew up in Kenya and is now a writer who helps amplify African voices internationally. She was the perfect person to put Boniface's problems to rest and edit the book. Anna also said that it should be in his voice, and that closed the debate. Boniface finished the story and sent it to Anna.
Anna skillfully tightened her tongue, leaving Bonnie's voice untouched. We've laid out all the stories That Bonithia had in his arsenal. The first draft of the book was more than four hundred pages long. It had to get up to 300 pages to match the circulation we wanted. In our secret place, we stayed tw0 weeks and Bonnie put her heart into it. However, by the
end of our stay, activity came calling. I found him one afternoon, the afternoon dinner ended, he was busy on the phone helping to coordinate some of the protests that were supposed to happen. I asked loudly what he was doing, given that we needed his input to make sure we left for Nairobi with a book that would only need small touches before going to the
printing house. But Bonnie is Bonnie. He was supposed to help with the logistics of the protest. When our time was up, we finished sorting the photos for all the possible stories that could be told. What we had to do was pare it down. Bonnie told us a few days later that a printer from India was in town. We set up PAWA254 and worked on the book many days
and nights. Armstrong organized a cover photo production, the location of which was the Nairobi Arboretum. We settled in our place and the expert crew he sources, Quickly. It was lit up like a video set with no flash-photography gear. So we could see what we expect image on a computer monitor. I had a picture in the third picture. However, a number of
poses were accepted and what appeared on the book was not my first choice. Since we all couldn't agree on what she should be, Nyeri, Boniface's wife, will make the final call. And she made a good call. My co-designer, Steven Nderitu, who started and finished the book by adding sparkle to the cover. This book came out better than I ever imagined. Thank

He is known for his images of the post-election violence that hit Kenya in
2007-2008. Mwangi's early life was born in Taketa, Kenya, on the border with Tanzania. His mother was a businesswoman who traded across the border. Mwangi moved to live in his grandparents' home in Nyeri, Central Kenya, when he was six years old. Mwangi later moved with his mother to live in the low-income Ngora suburb of Nairobi and then to the
high-rise district of Majengo, Giturai 45, before finally settling in Pangani. Mwangi dropped out of school and left during this period and helped his mother with a vend-book. When his mother died in 2000, Mwangi, then 17, decided he needed to change if he survived. He entered a Bible school with the intention of becoming a pastor and received a diploma in
Bible studies. At school I became interested in photography. He was influenced by Kenyan photographer Mohamed Amin. Despite his lack of higher education, Mwangi managed to get a place in a private journalism school. To finance his studies, he had to continue selling books on the street, but soon began to gain the experience of a photojournalist. He
published the photos in the national newspaper The Standard, and in 2005 received his first photography prizes. Within three years he gained international recognition as one of Africa's most promising photographers. In 2008 and 2010, he was awarded the Africa Photojournalist of the Year Award. [6] [6] he put his photography career on hold to work for
Kenyan social justice. Mwangi's activism retired from journalism after witnessing and documenting violence after Kenya's 2007 election as a newspaper photographer. He experienced post-traumatic stress and depression (and he was also directly affected by having to temporarily relocate after people in his community were at risk). More importantly, he was
disappointed that he had to cover the same politicians who incited violence but went unpunished. His first initiative was the Project Picha Mtaani, Swahili for photos on the street showing pictures of violence in 2007 after national elections, between different tribes. This mobile street exhibition has been shown across the country for people to discuss
reconciliation and promote national healing. The exhibition was seen by more than 600,000 people. The film was later supplemented by the documentary Heal the Nation, which was shown mainly in the slums. Since these initiatives, Mwangi has begun to develop a tougher stance on human rights in his work against (political and corporate) impunity,
speaking out against bad and corrupt political leadership, and promoting a message of peace for elections scheduled for 2013 with initiatives called MaVulture and Team Courage. Team Courage is a Nairobi-based lobby that seeks to enable the patriotic movement of citizens to take bold and effective measures to create a new Kenya. His latest initiative is
Pawa 254, which was launched in 2011, a hub and space for artists and activists to work together towards social change and promote human rights in Kenya. He formed the Ukweli party and was a candidate for the seat of MP for the 2017 Kenyan general election, he is married to Ellin Nyeri Mwangi, who works with him on his initiatives and is the mother of
their three children. TIME Honors and Awards: Next Generation Leaders 2015 Archive from the original 2012-09-08. Extracted 2012-09-07.CS1 maint: archived copy as a title (link) - Archive copy.
