About Contemporary Archive Project

CAP is an experimental collective of photographers based in Durban. These photo-makers bridge traditional documentary photography, through research and new media to document stories and present them in dynamic and experimental ways - inclusive of audio-visual elements, written texts (long and short form). We embrace image-making as a conscientised, and ethical practice. This means, documenting with consent, in-depth research and fact-checking, engaging person(s) or topics without prejudice. Contemporary Archive Project is a school of thought that teaches “making” photos instead of “taking” photos*, which is a more ethical, decolonised approach to photography.
