Photographs by NKANDU CHABALA

Every day is different from any other, but little do we realise that each day, in a sense, is every day, with similarities between the previous one and the one to come. This was my thought as I photographed and chose these photos. The location and scenes are one. A sense of everyday life and belonging kicks in if one takes to the markets and neighbourhoods. However, every day in Lusaka is unique, depending on the perspective you look at. Each of them is different but ultimately the same.

These photos communicate how we strive daily to make a change by earning income, sweeping, and going to the market. The everyday activities that often go unnoticed and, in a sense, are art and time capsules when photographed. So, in summary, these photographs show that this is the everyday case in the streets and markets. An unspoken truth yet known everyday truth.
