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.
