About Scarlett Lion
Photographer, writer, reporter. Going through life with an eye towards creating records and histories.
On the roof a a friend’s house in Nakasero, Kampala back in 2006, I went through a crate of discarded items he and a few other artists had gathered. On that day, I was looking for something, and I found the lion. Something about the hollowed out, paint chipped toy appealed to my understanding of this amazing continent: I’d never seen a real lion, after all.
Previously based in Uganda, currently in Liberia. Always roaming. This blog provides curiosities, commentary, and photos.

Hey now you’re being very harsh. For most kampalans who are used to the low grade concerts of “DJ play track 10″ where artists lip sync and shout themselves hoarse, this was largely by far the only thing they had close to a true music cincert. Ali Campbell, tried hard to expose the cracks in his voice and in my own honest opinion they were splendid by Kampala standards. Viva UB40
