Moving African Landscapes Vol. 1

Moving African Landscapes Vol. 1 is a pioneering interdisciplinary exploration of African landscapes as lived, remembered, and imagined spaces. Edited by Tokie Laotan-Brown, this volume brings together photographers, architects, lecturers, and visual artists who engage critically and creatively with the dynamic relationships between Africans and their natural, cultural, and built environments. The book examines how sensory experiences, memory, spatial behaviours, social practices, and political hierarchies have historically and presently shaped African landscapes. Each contributor provides a unique perspective on how landscapes move through time and space, informing identity, community, and cultural resilience across ancestral timelines. This makes it a seminal reference for scholars, practitioners, students, and creatives interested in African studies, architecture, heritage, design, and cultural landscapes.
