#GambiaDoors – the (un)mundane doors and storefronts of The Gambia, West Africa.

#GambiaDoors – the (un)mundane doors and storefronts of The Gambia, West Africa. I have been working on this particular series – ‘Gambia Doors’ – for many years. Vividly coloured, often unintentionally quirky, doors and storefronts from the small West African country never fail to captivate me. Helen Jones-Florio.
