I never cease to be amazed at how much time people spend waiting.
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.

So true! Ryzyard Kapucinski described it as the African daze, I think.

True – I never cease to be amazed at how much time Africans spend waiting, and the systems and people that make them sit and wait… for EVERYTHING. Unless you have money or influence… you WAIT.
