Publisher Note
Research images from my cell phone, taken impulsively and intuitively as this project matured. They embody the spirit, energy and reality of tin mining in the Nigerian state of Plateau.
Fabrics and clay. Dark skin - ashen earth. Bodies merge with the landscape. Sediments from the present past - in water, soil, crops, terrain.
Woven in is a text by Erika Balsom, an in-depth consideration of the context and conception of the film Plateau.
In between an advertisement for the Commonwealth that appeared in the British Times in 1977 and outlines ambitious plans for the future of Nigeria. (Karimah Ashadu)
